A careless chemistry student performed a chemical reaction where his theoretical yield of
Magnesium oxide was 57.82 grams, but he actually produced 12.89 grams. What is his percent yield
for this experiment? (include the number with 4 significant figures but no units)

Answer 1

Answer:

22.29%

Explanation:

Percent yield = experimental yield / theoretical yield * 100

= 12.89 / 57.82 * 100 = 22.29%
