Step 3: Determine the limiting reactant. You have determined complete reaction of 64.7 g aluminum (Al) would give a theoretical yield of 122 g aluminum oxide (Al2O3), whereas complete reaction of 201 g iron (III) oxide (Fe2O3) would give a theoretical yield of 128 g aluminum oxide (Al203). Which of the following substances is the limiting reactant? A) aluminum (AI) B) iron (III) oxide (Fe2O3) C) aluminum oxide (Al½O3) D) iron (Fe)
