Question

Hexamethylenediamine (C6H16N₂) is one of the starting materials for the production of nylon. It can be prepared from adipic acid (C6H10O4) by the following overall equation:
C6H10 O4 (1) 2NH3 (g) + 4H2 (9)→ C6H16N2 (1) + 4H₂O(1)
What is the percent yield for the reaction if 1.41 x 10³ g of
Percent yield =
hexamethylenediamine is made from 1.99 x 10³ g of adipic acid?
