Theoretical Yield from 10 g of NaCl Limiting Reagent
Starting with 10 g of NaCl (molar mass 58.44 g/mol) in a 1:1 reaction producing a 74.55 g/mol product gives a theoretical yield of about 12.75 g.

Frequently asked questions
- What is a limiting reagent?
- The reactant that is completely consumed first, limiting how much product can form. Any remaining reactant is in excess.
- Where do I find the stoichiometric ratio?
- From the balanced chemical equation. E.g. 2H₂ + O₂ → 2H₂O means 2 mol H₂ produces 2 mol H₂O, so ratio = 1:1. N₂ + 3H₂ → 2NH₃ means 1 mol N₂ → 2 mol NH₃, ratio = 2.
