Think about it this way.
To make lemonade, I need 1 lemon and 8 ozs. water.
I have 4 lemons and 800 ozs water.
How much lemonade can I make?
4 X 8 = 32 ozs of lemonade cause the lemons are limiting.
Lots of water leftover, it helps me not in finding the yield.
Use the limiting reagent gms to figure the moles.
Use your balenced equation coefficients to get moles of product.
Convert to gms.
Hope that helps.
