Answer to Question #74336 in General Chemistry for jolene

Question

Titanium can be obtained from it oxide by the reaction shown here. TiO2{s}+ 2 C(s)= Ti(s)+2 CO, 20.0 g Ti are obtained. what is the percent yield for the reaction?

Answer 1

The percent yield calculation:
%mas. = m (Ti) practical / m (Ti) theoretical x 100%
So if you have 20 g:
%mas. = 20 g x 100% / m (Ti) theoretical
The last number you get when the maximum mass of Ti is known by the reaction.
