Question

A reaction has a theoretical yield of 56.9 g. when the reaction is carried out, 36.6 g of the product is obtained.

Answer 1

64%

Step-by-step explanation:

36.6/56.9=0.6432337432 x 100 = 64.32337432

Round to the whole percent... 64%

Answer 2

So to calculate the percentage yield, divide the actual mass by the theoretical mass. So 56.9/36.6. Use a calculator to calculate it. Then multiply it by 100 to calculate the percentage.
