A discussion of the Active Learning Questions can be found online in the Instructor’s Resource Guide and on PowerLecture. The questions
allow students to explore their understanding of concepts through discussion and peer teaching. The real value of these questions is the
learning that occurs while students talk to each other about chemical concepts.

Active Learning Questions an explanation of all you would need to do and a sample

Stoichiometry calculations
❯ Amounts of reactants consumed and products formed can be determined from the balanced
chemical equation.
❯ The limiting reactant is the one consumed first, thus limiting the amount of product that can
form.

Yield
❯ The theoretical yield is the maximum amount that can be produced from a given amount of
the limiting reactant.
❯ The actual yield, the amount of product actually obtained, is always less than the theoretical
yield.
