The theoretical yield of CO2 depends on the reaction taking place and the amount of reagents. To find the theoretical yield, you can follow the steps below:
Find the moles of the limiting reagent.
Multiply the moles of the limiting reagent by the stoichiometry of carbon dioxide in the reaction to give the moles of CO2 produced.
Multiply the moles of CO2 produced by 44, the molecular weight of CO2, to get the theoretical yield of your reaction.
