Question #63295
A chemical reaction can theoretically produce 137.5 grams of product, but in actuality 112.9 grams are produced. Which is the percent yield for this reaction?
Expert's answer
The percent yield is (actual mass of product / theoretical mass of product) * 100%.
Do the calculation:
The percent yield = (112.9 g / 137.5 g) * 100% = 82.1%
Answer:
The percent yield for this reaction is 82.1%.
Do the calculation:
The percent yield = (112.9 g / 137.5 g) * 100% = 82.1%
