Be a lot more careful in measuring and transferring things back and forth. Also, do not rush any experiment. Bad percent yield is caused by errors that can easily be made by, dripping here, dropping there and it usually happens because we are not careful. Give an experiment time to work. Let things set, settle, and react to their fullest amount.

The percentage yield is the Actual Yield divided by the Theoretical Yield, all multiplied by 100. Percentage = [(Actual)/(Theoretical)] x 100


When 320g octane C8H18 is burned in oxygen 392g of water is recovered what is the percent yield of the experiment?

the percent yield be the actual yield (392) divided by the theoretical yield (i calculated 450). 392/450 equals .87 multiply by 100 and the percent yield is 87%.

What is the percent yield for the steps 95 percent and 91 percent and 93 percent respectively What is the overall percent yield?

The overall percent yield can be found by converting the individual percentages to decimals (by dividing the percentages by 100), multiplying these decimals together, and converting this product back to percentage. 0.95 X 0.91 X 0.93 = 0.80 or 80 percent yield overall.


What relationship s used to determine the percent yield of a chemical reaction?

The percent yield of a reaction measures the efficiency of a reaction. The relationship of the actual yield to the theoretical yield is used to determine this.
