Expert Answer
Theoretical yield of Urea can be calculated as
(137.2 kg NH3) / (17.04 g NH3/mol) = 8.0516 kmol NH3
(211.4 kg CO2) / (44.01 g CO2/mol) = 4.80345 kmol CO2
8.0516 kilomoles of NH3 would react completely with 8.00469 x (1/2) = 4.002345 kilomoles of
CO2, but there is more CO2 present th...
