Question

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?

Answer 1

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%.
