His the answer I hope it helps
Answer:
Percentage Yield is given as,
%age Yield = Actual Yield / Theoretical Yield × 100
This shows that the %age yield is directly depending upon the actual yield. And most of the time the percentage yield is less than 100 % because of the following factors.
Impure Starting Materials:
If the starting materials (reactants) are not pure then reaction will not completely form the desired product. Different by products will form which will decrease the %age yield.
Incomplete Reactions:
Not all reactions go to completion. In many reactions the starting material after some time stops forming the product due to different conditions. Some reactions attain equilibrium and stop increasing the amount of product. While, in some reactions a by products (like water) formed often react with the product to give a reverse reactions. Hence, the chemistry of reactions also causes the decrease in %age yield.
Handling:
Another major reason for decrease in yield is handling the product. Always some of the product is lost during the workup of the reaction like, taking TLC, doing solvent extraction, doing column chromatography, taking characterization spectrums. So, we can conclude that the %age yield will always be less than 100%.
Answer: 460.624
Explanation:
1. Multiply the numbers
(24.5260 x 2.56) + 397.84
= (62.784) + 397.84
2. Add the numbers
(62.784) + 397.84
= 460.624
