Please let me know if you need a clearer answer. If so, I will use a real whiteboard, since I can write on that better.

Silicon nitride, a very hard, high-temperature resistant ceramic used as the material for turbine blades in jet engines is prepared by reacting silicon with nitrogen gas. The balanced chemical reaction is given below:
3 Si(s) + 2 N2 (g) ➜ Si3N4 (s)
A. What mass of nitrogen gas (molar mass: 28.014 g/mol) reacts with 10.00 g of silicon (molar mass: 28.085 g/mol)?
a.
6.667 g N2
b.
14.96 g N2
c.
15.00 g N2
d.
6.650 g N2
B. How much Si3N4 (molar mass: 140.28 g/mol) is produced by reacting 10.00 g of silicon in excess nitrogen gas?
a.
14.98 g Si3N4
b.
16.65 g Si3N4
c.
30.00 g Si3N4
d.
3.333 g Si3N4
C. If the actual amount of Si3N4 produced from 10.00 g of silicon is 11.31 g, what is the percent yield of the reaction?
a.
37.70%
b.
342.7%
c.
75.50%
d.
67.93%
