Question

If the theoretical yield of a reaction is 26.0 grams and you actually recovered 22.0 grams, what is the percent yield?

Answer 1

The formula actual yield / theoretical yield is used to calculate the percent yield of a reaction. This value is a measure of how much product is produced relative to the what is supposed to be produced.

Percent yield = 22.0 / 26.0 x 100 =  84.6%

Hope this answers the question. Have a nice day.

Answer 2

Answer:

84.6 %

Explanation:

Percent yield = actual yield/ theoretical yield x 100

Percent yield is the ratio of the actual yield to the theoretical yield  

Given,  

Actual yield = 22 g

Theoretical yield = 26 g  

Percent yield = $\frac{22 g x 100}{26 g}$ = 84.6%
