Question

In most of the reactions the actual yield is less than the theoretical yield due to
(a) Rate of reactions are slow
(b) Loss of product during handling
(c) Reaction never complete 100% (u) Law of conservation of mass is not true​

Answer 1

An actual yield is the mass of a product actually obtained from the reaction. It is usually less than the theoretical yield. The reasons for this include: incomplete reactions, in which some of the reactants do not react to form the product.
