For the usual run of cast iron, The yield stength almost coincides with its fracture strength - cast iron is very brittle and fractures at usually more than 20000 pounds per square inch. DUCTILE cast iron is one of the several irons that DO yield before cracking.

What will make cast iron bend slightly?

Cast iron can bend slightly when subjected to high temperatures that exceed its yield strength, often due to thermal expansion. Additionally, significant mechanical forces, such as bending or twisting, can cause slight deformation, especially if the cast iron is thin or has inherent flaws. However, cast iron is generally quite brittle, so while it may bend slightly under certain conditions, it is more likely to crack or break under excessive stress.

What is the percent yield for the reaction if 65.0 g of iron lll oxide produces 15.0g of iron?

Percent yield is calculated by dividing the actual yield by the theoretical yield and multiplying by 100. The theoretical yield can be calculated by stoichiometry. In this case, the theoretical yield of iron would be 43.3g. Therefore, the percent yield would be (15.0g / 43.3g) x 100 = 34.6%.
