Benzene, C6H6, is reacted with bromine, Br2, to produce bromobenzene, C6H5Br, and hydrogen bromide, HBr, as shown below. When 40.0g of benzene are reacted with 95.0g of bromine, 65.0g of bromobenzene is produced.
C6H6 + Br2 ----> C6H5Br + HBr
1. Which compound is the limiting reactant?
2. What is the theoretical yield of bromobenzene?
3. What is the reactant in excess, and how much remains after the reaction is completed?
4. What is the percentage yield?
