the actual yield of a reaction is 55.2g and the theoretical yield is 61.3g calculate the yield
To calculate the yield, you need to find the percentage of the actual yield compared to the theoretical yield.
First, divide the actual yield by the theoretical yield:
Actual yield = 55.2 g
Theoretical yield = 61.3 g
Yield percentage = (Actual yield / Theoretical yield) × 100
Yield percentage = (55.2 g / 61.3 g) × 100
Next, calculate the yield percentage:
Yield percentage = (0.9011) × 100
Yield percentage = 90.11%
Therefore, the yield is approximately 90.11%.
