Ferrocene, [Fe(C10H10ks) molar mass 186.03 g/moljcan be prepared by reacting 3.0 g of FeCl (s) [molar mass-126.75 g/mol] with 2.0 g of cyclopentadiene [C.Hmolar mass 66.01 g/molland an excess of KOH, as shown in the following reaction FeCl + 2C5H6+ 2KOHFeC0H10+ 2HO A student who carried out this reaction obtained 2.7 g of ferrocene. Of the following choices which has three correct answers? CH is limiting: 0.0151 g of ferrocene could be theoretically formed; obtained 74.8 % yield CHI is limiting: 2.82 g of ferrocene could be theoretically formed; obtained 95.7 % yield FeCl, is limiting: 4.2 g of ferrocene could be theoretically formed; obtained 89.4 % yield DC,H, is limiting: 4.2 g of ferrocene could be theoretically formed; obtained 54.6 % yield B
