Yield: the amount of product Theoretical yield: the amount of product we expect, based

Yield: the amount of product Theoretical yield: the amount of product we expect, based on stoichiometric calculations Actual yield: amount of product from a procedure or experiment (this is given in the question) Percent yield: actual yield x 100% theoretical yield

Why does the actual yield in a chemical reaction often fall short of theoretical

Why does the actual yield in a chemical reaction often fall short of theoretical yield? • Not all product is recovered (e. g. spattering) • Reactant impurities (e. g. weigh out 100 g of chemical which has 20 g of junk) • A side reaction occurs (e. g. Mg. O vs. Mg 3 N 2) • The reaction does not go to completion

Procedure Step 1: write the balanced chemical equation Step 2: determine actual and theoretical

Procedure Step 1: write the balanced chemical equation Step 2: determine actual and theoretical yield. Actual is given, theoretical is calculated: Step 3: Calculate % yield
