Write one word problem and solution. A exemplar are included - be aware that the assignment has been changed slightly this year to include a requirement for percent yield. PS: Some trouble happened in my home, so I didn't go to many classes. And my teacher never sees the email. So I don't know the key points of the assignment. Can you try to tell me what key points that the assignment wants me to do?

1. Your roommate, a history student, has stumbled across nitrogen trifluoride in their history textbook because it was used in the 1960s and 1970s as rocket fuel oxidizer. They remember learning about chemical reactions in Grade 11 and want to make nitrogen trifluoride using nitrogen gas and fluorine gas. Since you are a chemistry student, you have decided to help them remember how to construct the formula. Your other roommate, who is a mathematics student, wants to create a hypothetical situation so that the history student can better understand the concept. She writes down a mass for fluorine gas and nitrogen gas. a) If she wrote that the mass of nitrogen gas as 114.6 g and the mass of fluorine gas as 354.8 g which is the limiting reagent in this case? b) The mass of nitrogen trifluoride produced that she wrote is 469.4 g. What is the theoretical mass of nitrogen trifluoride produced calculated using the given masses? Is this higher or lower than the mass that she wrote? c) If it is too high or low, write down the difference between the two values. Bonus: What is the most probable reason as to why she wrote down the mass of the product as 469.4g?
