Yo sup??

The theoretical yield will be given in the question.

To calculate the percentage yield use the formula

percentage yield=(observed yield/theoretical yield)*100

Hope this helps

Answer:

Theoretical yield is the result obtained from your calculations.

Percentage yield is the ratio of the actual yield ( i.e yield obtained from your experiment) to theoretical yield x 100 i.e

%yield = Actual yield / Theoretical yield x 100
