Melody Hebert · Answer 1

percentage yield = 85. 50%

Explanation:

The percentage yield is the actual yield divided by the theoretical yield multiply by 100.

The theoretical yield is the amount of product calculated from the limiting reactants.

The actual yield is amount of product gotten when the experiment or reaction is carried out ...

Percentage yield = actual yield/theoretical yield * 100

Theoretical yield = 9.23 grams

Actual yield = 7.89

percentage yield = 7.89/9.23 * 100

percentage yield = 789/9.23

percentage yield = 85.4821235103 %

percentage yield = 85. 50%

Missy · Answer 2

Answer: 85.48%

Explanation:

To find percent yield, divide the actual yield by the theoretical yield and then multiply by 100.

7.89/9.23=0.8548

0.8548*100=85.48

Percent Yield=85.48%
