Question

What is the percent yield if the theoretical yield of ChCl3 is 14.50 g but the actual yield is 12.33 g?

Answer 1

Percentage is a ration of part to a whole. In our case, in perfect conditions, yield is theoretical and thusly considered larger, a whole. While actual yield is less because of imperfect conditions. The percentage is,

$(12.33\cdot 100)/14.5\approx85.03\%$.

Hope this helps.
