Question

In a chemical reaction, substance R reacts with compound XY to produce 47.0 g of compound RX. If the theoretical yield of RX is 56.0 g, what is its percent yield?
Use .

Answer 1

Answer: percent yield is 83.928%

Solution: GIVEN,

experimental yield= 47grm.

theoretical yield= 50grm.

The chemical reaction is,

R+XY->RX+Y

formula used:

% yield= experimental yield/theoretical yield× 100

now put the given values in formula we get the % yield

now,

% yield =46grm/50grm×100=83.982%

therefore the percent yield is 83.982%
