Percent Yield

  • the theoretical yield of a reaction is the amount of products that should be formed
  • the actual amount depends on the experiment
  • the percent yield is like a measure of success. (How close is the amount to the predicted amount?)
  • Percent Yield= actual/theoretical x 100
If 47.7g of Urea are produced, determine the theoretical (predicted) yield of CO2.
What is the percent yield of CO2 if 12.0g is produced?
47.7 x 1mol/60g x 1/1 x 44g/1mol = 34.98 g
12/34.9.98 = 34%
