Potassium iodide (KI) is obtained by reacting HI with KHCO3, which also produces water and carbon dioxide. The equation is:   HI  +   KHCO3   -->   KI   +   CO2   +   H2O   If 481 g of HI and 318 g of KHCO3 are reacted, How many grams of potassium iodide do we get? What is the % yield of the reaction if 496 g of potassium iodide is collected in the laboratory?

Potassium iodide (KI) is obtained by reacting HI with KHCO3, which also produces water and carbon dioxide. The equation is:

 

HI  +   KHCO3   -->   KI   +   CO2   +   H2O

 

If 481 g of HI and 318 g of KHCO3 are reacted,

How many grams of potassium iodide do we get?
What is the % yield of the reaction if 496 g of potassium iodide is collected in the laboratory?
