How would you calculate the theoretical yield of a product given a limiting reagent and reaction stoichiometry?

• A. Determine moles of limiting reagent, use stoichiometric coefficients to compute moles of product, then convert to mass using product molar mass
• B. Use the amount of product predicted by empirical rules
• C. Guess based on reaction percent
• D. Use only the molar mass of reactants

Answer: (A)
