If an insufficient amount of liquid unknown had been used, how would this have effected the value of the experimental molar mass

Answer:

Actual yield reduces the more.

Step-by-step explanation:

An actual yield of the course of a chemical reaction is the mass of a product actually obtained from the reaction.

In practice you see it and It is usually less than the theoretical yield.

Various reasons may come up to explain this away but here is one:

• incomplete reactions, simply put here some of the reactants do not react to form the product.

The same applies in the question about the actual yield will reduce significantly in molar mass now that insufficient amount of reagent are used.
