Magnesium oxide can be made by heating magnesium metal in the presence of oxygen. The balanced equation is: 2Mg(s) + O₂ → 2MgO(s), When 150 g of Mg is allowed to react with 250 g O₂, 130 g Mgis collected. Determine the limiting reactant (LR) and percent yield of MgO. LR:MgO, % yield 67% LR:Mg, %yield 192% LR:Mg, % yield 52% LR: 02, %yield 21%
