Would the percent yield be different if the actual yield and theoretical yield were in units of moles?

Not at all. Just be consistent with the units of both actual and theoretical yield.

What would be the percent yield of the reaction be if the theoretical yield is 11.22 g but the actual yield was 8.67 g?
In this case the yield is 77,27 %.
Would the experimental percent oxygen be higher or lower than the theoretical percent oxygen?
because of variable in the situation '
Why is the actual yield less than the theoretical yield?
All reactants have impurities and those impurities become the limiting factor for the reaction. This means that the actual yield will be lower because there will not be the total measured amount of reactants. Fewer reactants equals lower output.
Are the twelve waters of hydration used to calculate the theoretical yield of the alum?
Yes, 12H2O do count toward theoretical yield of alum, since it is an integral part of alum formula. Otherwise it would be just K-Al double sulfate, with different structure.
What are depressants made of?
"Depressants" is just the name of a very broad category of drugs, all of which are made of different things. You would need to ask what a specific drug is made of for an actual answer.

Actual mechanical advantage is always better then theoretical MA why?
"Better" is an interesting word. I would guess that theoretical MA beats actual MA any day of the week. Some energy is lost in friction.
What if a potassium chlorate sample is contaminated with KCL would the experimental percent oxygen be higher or lower than the theoretical percent oxygen?
the experimental % oxygen would be lower because there would be more KCL in the simple than oxygen
How many miles is Washington to Manila Philippines?
The shortest 'theoretical' air distance from Washington DC, USA to Manila, Philippines is 8572 miles. Actual distance would depend on airport location and actual route of the flight.
How many times would a coin have to show heads in 50 tosses to show an experimental probability of 20 percent more than the theoretical probability of getting heads?
Theoretical probability = 0.5 Experimental probability = 20% more = 0.6 In 50 tosses, that would imply 30 heads.
How would life be different if there was 80 percent oxygen and 20 percent nitrogen?
The atmosphere would be much more volatile.
What does it mean if you get a negative number when you calculate for percent error?
Depending on whether you subtract actual value from expected value or other way around, a positive or negative percent error, will tell you on which side of the expected value that your actual value is. For example, suppose your expected value is 24, and your actual value is 24.3 then if you do the following calculation to figure percent error:[percent error] = (actual value - expected value)/(actual value) - 1 --> then convert to percent.So you have (24.3 - 24)/24 -1 = .0125 --> 1.25%, which tells me the actual is higher than the expected. If instead, you subtracted the actual from the expected, then you would get a negative 1.25%, but your actual is still greater than the expected. My preference is to subtract the expected from the actual. That way a positive error tells you the actual is greater than expected, and a negative percent error tells you that the actual is less than the expected.
Would it be engage in resume puffing and then disclose the actual facts in an interview?
Yes, it would be wrong to engage in resume puffing. The actual facts in an interview are that · Eleven percent of all applicants lied about their reasons for leaving a previous job. · Four percent fudged job titles on their resumes
Is .9 percent of nacl different from 9 percent nacl?
Well .9 in a % would be 90%, and .09 would be 9%. So I would say yes.
How do you write 3 tenths of a percent as a decimal?
3 tenths of a percent would be .3%. Any time you want to convert a percent to an actual number you just move the decimal two spaces to the left. This would give you .003 this is your answer. An example would be: I need 14% of 65. So I would take .14 and multiply it by 65 and I would get 9.1 as an answer.
