Problem: Urea (CH₄N₂O), can be synthesized by the reaction of ammonia (NH₃) with carbon dioxide (CO₂):

2NH_3(aq) + CO_2(aq) --> CH₄N₂O_(aq) + H₂O_(l)

An industrial synthesis of urea obtains 87.5 kg of urea upon reaction of 68.2 kg of ammonia with excess carbon dioxide. Determine the theoretical yield of urea and percent yield for the reaction. (10 points) Every time you calculate the amount you should be able to get, you are calculating the "theoretical yield". Here, they are also telling you what the "actual" yield was (the amount that was actually obtained). Once you calculate the theoretical yield you can figure out what % was actually obtained.  Note, too, that masses are being given in kg, not g. Do you know how many g are in a kg? Start there. Please provide the complete solution of this problem.
