Question

What is the percent yield for a reaction if we predicted the formation
of 42.0 grams of cyclohexene and actually recovered only 7.6
grams?

Answer 1

Answer: 18.1%

Explanation:

Answer 2

The percent yield for a reaction whose theoretical yield is 42.0 g and actual yield is 7.6 g is 18.09 g.

What is percentage yield?

Percentage yield can be calculated by dividing the actual yield by the theoretical yield multiplied by 100.

The theoretical yield is 42.0 g

The actual yield is 7.6 g

$\dfrac{actual\;yield}{theoretical \;yield} \times 100\\\\\\\dfrac{7.6}{42.0} \times 100 = 18.09$

Thus, the percentage yield is 18.09 g.
