    Percent yield = 32.9%

    Explanation:

    Given dа ta:

    Number of moles of Fe₂O₃ = 0.380 mol

    Number of moles of Fe produced = 13.7 g

    Theoretical yield = ?

    Actual yield of iron in mol = ?

    Percent yield = ?

    Solution:

    Chemical equation:

    Fe₂O₃ + 3C → 2Fe + 3CO

    Actual yield of iron in moles:

    Number of moles = mass / molar mass

    Number of moles = 13.7 g / 55.8 g/mol

    Number of moles = 0.25 mol

    Theoretical yield:

    Fe₂O₃ : Fe

    1 : 2

    0.380 : 2*0.380 = 0.76

    Theoretical yield = 0.76 mol

    Percent yield:

    Percent yield = actual yield / theoretical yield * 100

    Percent yield = 0.25 mol / 0.76 mol * 100

    Percent yield = 32.9%
