Explanation / Answer

diels-alder reaction

Limiting reactants

Here moles of maleic anhydride is lower and thus, limiting reactant = maleic anhydride

moles of diels-lader product formed = 2.45 mmol

Theoretical yield of diels-alder poduct = 2.45 x 10^-3 moles x 166.13 g/mol

                                                             = 0.41 g
