Sample percent yield problem:

Given this reaction:   Fe₂O_{3 (s)} + 3CO _(g) → 2Fe _(s) + 3CO_{2 (aq)}
 

1. If you start with 155 g of iron (III) oxide as the limiting reactant, what is the theoretical yield of iron metal?
      

2. 87.9 grams of iron metal were actually formed. What was the percent yield?
