Ferrocene, Fe(C5H5)2(s), Can Be Prepared by Reacting 3 FeC10H10 + 2H2O
a Student Who Carried Out This Reaction
Multiple Choice
Ferrocene, Fe(C5H5) 2(s) , can be prepared by reacting 3.0 g of FeCl2(s) with an equal mass of cyclopentadiene, C5H6(l) , and an excess of KOH, as shown in the following reaction FeCl2 + 2C5H6 + 2KOH FeC10H10 + 2H2O
A student who carried out this reaction obtained 2.7 g of ferrocene. Of the following choices which has three correct answers?
A) C5H6 is limiting; 5.2 g of ferrocene could be theoretically formed; obtained 64 % yield
B) FeCl2 is limiting; 4.2 g of ferrocene could be theoretically formed; obtained 59 % yield
C) C5H6 is limiting; 4.2 g of ferrocene could be theoretically formed; obtained 54 % yield
D) C5H6 is limiting; 4.2 g of ferrocene could be theoretically formed; obtained 64 % yield
E) None of the choices have three correct responses
