A fuel mixture used in the early days of rocketry contained hydrazine (N2H4) and dinitrogen tetraoxide (N2O4). When ignited, the mixture released energy and produced elemental nitrogen and water: 2 N2H4(l)  +  N2O4(g)   →   3 N2(g)   +    4 H2O(g)       [balanced] What is the percent yield when 9.15 mol N2H4 reacts with 3.12 mol of N2O4 to form 7.68 mol of N2?

A fuel mixture used in the early days of rocketry contained hydrazine (N2H4) and dinitrogen tetraoxide (N2O4). When ignited, the mixture released energy and produced elemental nitrogen and water:

2 N2H4(l)  +  N2O4(g)   →   3 N2(g)   +    4 H2O(g)       [balanced]

What is the percent yield when 9.15 mol N2H4 reacts with 3.12 mol of N2O4 to form 7.68 mol of N2?
