New cards

Why does yield might be not 100 % ?

  1. Loss of product

  2. Incomplete reactions

  3. Side reactions not accounted for

How to work out Theoretical Yield

  1. work out how many moles of the limiting reactant you have

  2. Use the equation to work out how many moles of products you would expect that much reactant to make

  3. Calculate mass of that many moles products = TY
