Strategy:
 For a multi-reactant synthesis, identify the limiting reagent by comparing the mole-to-coefficient ratios. The yield of the product is governed by this limiting species.

Step 1: Identify the Limiting Reagent
Reaction: 
- Moles/Coeff for X 
- Moles/Coeff for Y 
- Moles/Coeff for Z 
Z is the limiting reagent.

Step 2: Calculate moles of product
From the stoichiometry, 3 moles of Z produce 1 mole of .

Step 3: Calculate mass of product
Molar mass .
