The actual yield is given within the worded problem. The theoretical yield however is to be found. In order to calculate the theoretical yield, you need to convert the mass of the limiting reagent (LR) to the mass of the reagent in excess (ER). To find the limiting reagent, you need to first convert the mass of the limiting reagent to the mass of the reagent in excess (to find the theoretical yield)
A. Convert mass of limiting reagent to mass reagent in excess (mass --> mass); in other words, find the mass of the reagent consumed.
1. Multiply the mass of the limiting reagent by the # molecules of the reagent in excess and its molar mass.
2. Divide the above by the # of molecules LR which is multiplied by its molar mass.
Mass LR x # molecules ER x molar mass ER
-- # molecules LR x molar mass LR
3. Subtract the original mass of reagent in excess and the consumed reagent in excess.
Original mass Reagent in Excess - Consumed Reagent in Excess
= Reagent leftover/unused (theoretical yield).
B. Find the percent yield of the product.
