Question

What is the percent yield if the theoretical yield of ChCl3 is 14.50 g but the actual yield is 12.33 g?

Answer 1

Answer: 85.03%

Step-by-step explanation:

Percentage yield = (actual yield/ theoretical yield) x100

so: (12.33/ 14.50)x 100

= 85.0344827586

Answer 2

Percentage is a ration of part to a whole. In our case, in perfect conditions, yield is theoretical and thusly considered larger, a whole. While actual yield is less because of imperfect conditions. The percentage is,

`(12.33\cdot 100)/14.5\approx85.03\%`.

Hope this helps.
