Question
**Chemical Equilibrium and Yield Calculations**

Given the data:

- 2.32 grams of Beryllium Chloride (BeCl\(_2\))
- 0.90 grams of Lithium Hydride (LiH)
- Products are 0.19 grams of Beryllium Hydride (BeH\(_2\)) and 0.92 grams of Lithium Chloride (LiCl)

Answer the following questions:

1. **How many moles of BeCl\(_2\) do you have?**
   \[ \text{Moles of BeCl}_2 = \frac{\text{Grams of BeCl}_2}{\text{Molar Mass of BeCl}_2} \]

2. **How many moles of LiH do you have?**
   \[ \text{Moles of LiH} = \frac{\text{Grams of LiH}}{\text{Molar Mass of LiH}} \]

3. **What is your limiting reagent?**
   - Determine which of the reactants is consumed first in the reaction by comparing the mole ratios.

4. **What is your theoretical yield of BeH\(_2\) in moles?**
   \[ \text{Theoretical Yield (moles)} = \text{Moles of Limiting Reagent} \times \frac{\text{Coefficient of BeH}_2 \text{ in balanced equation}}{\text{Coefficient of Limiting Reagent}} \]

5. **What is your theoretical yield of BeH\(_2\) in grams?**
   \[ \text{Theoretical Yield (grams)} = \text{Theoretical Yield (moles)} \times \text{Molar Mass of BeH}_2 \]

6. **What is your theoretical yield of LiCl in moles?**
   \[ \text{Theoretical Yield (moles)} = \text{Moles of Limiting Reagent} \times \frac{\text{Coefficient of LiCl in balanced equation}}{\text{Coefficient of Limiting Reagent}} \]

7. **What is your theoretical yield of LiCl in grams?**
   \[ \text{Theoretical Yield (grams)} = \text{Theoretical Yield (moles)} \times \text{Molar Mass of LiCl} \]

Use the molar masses for the calculations:

- BeCl
