Question

A reacton has a theoretical yield of 22.8g. When the reaction was carried out, 15.1g of the product was obtained. What is the percent yield?

Answer 1

The percent yield is 66.23%

Step-by-step explanation:

The percent yield is the relation between the yield estimated theoreticaly and the actual yield obtained:

`P=(y_(real))/(y_(theo))*100`

`P=(15.1g)/(22.8g)*100`

`P=66.23`

Answer 2

The percentage yield is calculated as follows
Taking the mass of product obtained divided by mass theoretical yield multiplied by 100
mass Theoretical yield= 22.8g
mass of the product= 15.1g
percentage yield= 15.1g/22.8g x100= 66.23%
