What Is Percent Yield?
Percent yield is the ratio of the product actually obtained from a reaction to the amount theoretically expected. It indicates the efficiency of the reaction.
How is it calculated?
How Is It Calculated?
% yield = (actual product ÷ theoretical product) × 100
- Enter the actual and theoretical amount of product.
Frequently Asked Questions
Why is the yield not 100%?
Due to side reactions, incomplete reaction and loss of material, the actual yield is usually lower than the theoretical one.
