Solution

The correct option is C 87.5%
2Fe(NO3)32.5 mole+3Na2CO33.6 moleFe2(CO3)3+6NaNO36.3 mole
To find limiting reagent
for Fe(NO3)3=2.52=1.25
for Na2CO3=3.63=1.2
Here the limiting reagent is Na2CO3, so NaNO3 formed (theoretically) will be 3.6 mol of Na2CO3×6 mol of NaNO33 mol of Na2CO3=7.2 mol of NaNO3
Percentage yield=Actual yieldtheoretical yield×100=6.37.2×100=87.5%
