Chemical synthesis involves the creation of a complex substance from simple substances. In this experiment, iron(III) chloride hexahydrate, FeCl36H20 will be combined with potassium oxalate monohydrate, K2C2O4+H20, to produce tris(oxalato)ferrate(III) trihydrate, K3Fe(C204)33H20. The reaction is shown below. FeCl3(aq) + 3 K2C2O4(aq) + 3H20(1)K3Fe(C2O4)33H20(s) + 3 KCl(aq) (1-1) The initial reactants as well as the product are hydrated compounds. The waters of hydration are bound within the crystal lattice (i.e. it is not a "wet" compound). The water must be accounted for when calculating the molar masses of the reactants. QUESTION: A student performed the experiment using 2.5648 g of FeCl36H20 and 5.9825 g K2C2O...H20. Determine the limiting reactant when K3Fe(C2O4)33H2O(s) is formed as per the reaction given in the lab instructions. Show your work and/or explain your process
