Question

The theoretical yield for a reaction is 55.9 g LiCl. The actual yield is 24.6 g LiCl. What is the percent yield of the reaction?



Question options:

227%


44%


25%


56%

Answer 1

Ansewr is 44%.
As we know,
%age yield = $\frac{Actual Yield}{Theoretical Yield}$ × 100
So,
%age Yield = $\frac{24.6}{55.9}$ × 100
%age Yield = 44.00 %
