The percent yield is the ratio of the actual yield to the theoretical yield. A mole ratio is a conversion factor derived from the coefficient of a balanced chemical equation interpreted in terms of moles.
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.
the amount of product obtained over the amount possible multiplied by 100
A; The amount of product we obtain after a chemical reaction is called yield.There are two types of yield one is actual yield and the other is the theoretical yield .Actual yield is that yield that we obtain originally in a reaction while the theoretical yield is calculated through a chemical equation. Mostly actual yield is less then theoretical yield because of crystallization, filtration,distillation etc
The amount of product that is possible in a reaction.
A theoretical yield is the amount of substance you calculate mathematically, as opposed to the actual yield, which is the amount of substance you find using a balance.To find the theoretical yield, you need a balanced equation. In this case,Zn + I2 -> ZnI2So, that was easy enough. The theoretical yield is limited by the reagent present in the smaller quantity by moles, not by mass. You must take the mass you have of zinc multiplied by zinc's molar mass to find the number of moles of zinc. You must take the mass you have of I2 and multiply by the molar mass of I2.The limiting reagent is the substance of fewer moles. Since these two reagents react in a 1:1 ratio, you just need to compare and see which you have less of. This will give you the number of moles you can make of ZnI2, theoretically -- the theoretical yield.
The actual yield is less than the theoretical yield.
Theoretical= calculated
Yes, competing side reactions occurring during the reaction can lead to a lower actual yield compared to the theoretical yield. Side reactions may produce undesired byproducts or result in incomplete conversion of reactants, reducing the overall yield of the desired product. Factors such as reaction conditions, impurities, and catalysts can influence the extent of side reactions and their impact on the final yield.
Actual yield is always less than theoretical yield because: 1) Much amount of product is lost in experimental techniques i.e. filtration, evaporation etc. 2) Much amount of product is lost in energy i.e. heat energy.
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.

Yes, impure reactants can lead to lower actual yield because impurities can interfere with the reaction process, reducing the amount of product that can be produced. This can result in a lower yield than what is theoretically expected due to the presence of impurities affecting the efficiency of the reaction.

The actual yield of a reaction product is always less than the yield from the chemical equation. This is because of error.
Actual compensation will always be less than theoretical payouts. For example, it the posted payout is 50%, the actual payout will be somewhere closer to half of that amount, or 25% actual payout.
