---**Chemical Reaction and Yield Calculation**For the following reaction, **3.88 grams of oxygen gas** are mixed with excess **carbon (graphite)**. The reaction yields **4.42 grams of carbon dioxide**.\[\text{carbon (graphite) (s) + oxygen (g) → carbon dioxide (g)}\]---**Questions:**1. What is the theoretical yield of **carbon dioxide**? - [Input Box] grams2. What is the percent yield for this reaction? - [Input Box] %---In the above problem, you are asked to determine two things regarding a chemical reaction between carbon (graphite) and oxygen gas resulting in the formation of carbon dioxide gas:1. **Theoretical Yield**: This is the maximum amount of product that can be formed from the given quantities of reactants based on stoichiometric calculations.2. **Percent Yield**: This is the ratio of the actual yield (the measured amount of product obtained from the reaction) to the theoretical yield, expressed as a percentage.In this specific problem, it is given that 3.88 grams of oxygen reacts with an excess of carbon (graphite) and produces 4.42 grams of carbon dioxide. You need to calculate the theoretical yield and then use that value to find the percent yield of the reaction.Make sure to review stoichiometry and the concept of limiting and excess reactants as part of your study material to solve such problems effectively.---
