By definition the percentage is between 0 and 100 %; this is valid not only in chemistry.

What does it mean if the percent yield is over 100?

It is an error (in science).


What is your percent error if you measure the model of a car to be 230 g in an actual masses 218 g?

To calculate the percent error, use the formula: Percent Error = |(Measured Value - Actual Value)| / Actual Value × 100%. In this case, Percent Error = |(230 g - 218 g)| / 218 g × 100% = (12 g / 218 g) × 100% ≈ 5.50%. Therefore, the percent error is approximately 5.50%.


What is the percent error if a measured value is 24.59 gmL and the accepted value is 25.49 gmL SCH1.4.1?

The percent error is calculated as: |(measured value - accepted value) / accepted value| * 100%. Substituting the values, we get |(24.59 - 25.49) / 25.49| * 100% = |-0.90 / 25.49| * 100% = 0.0353 * 100% = 3.53% error.


What is the percent error You measure the mass of a model car to be 230 G the actual mass is 218 grams what is your percent error?

To calculate the percent error, use the formula: (\text{Percent Error} = \left(\frac{\text{Measured Value} - \text{Actual Value}}{\text{Actual Value}}\right) \times 100). In this case, the percent error is (\left(\frac{230 , \text{g} - 218 , \text{g}}{218 , \text{g}}\right) \times 100 \approx 5.50%). Thus, the percent error in your measurement is approximately 5.50%.


The accepted value for the boiling water is 100.0 degrees Celsius when you measure this value in the laboratory your result is 98.5 degrees Celsius What is the percent error?

To find percent error, use this formula: (actual - experimental) / actual = x Then multiply x by 100 for your percentage. In this case, it would be: (100.0 C - 98.5) / (100) = .015 .015 x 100 = 1.5% There was a 1.5% error.

Can the answer of a percent error problem be 300?

Yes, your percent error can be over 100%. This means that somewhere during your experiment you made a big error.

How do you show percent error?

Percent error = (actual value - theoretical value) / theoretical value * 100%

What is the measured the density of Copper to be 68.7 gcm3 The accepted density of Copper is 63.5 gcm3 What was your percent error?

To calculate percent error, we can use the formula: Percent Error = [(Measured Value - Accepted Value) / Accepted Value] x 100. Plugging in the values: Percent Error = [(68.7 - 63.5) / 63.5] x 100 = (5.2 / 63.5) x 100 = 0.082 x 100 = 8.2%.


Formula for percent error?

Percent Error = {Absolute value (Experimental value - Theoretical Value) / Theoretical Value }*100


What is the percent error of 250-225 divided by 250 times 100 be?

250 - 225 / 250 *100 = 250 - 0.9*100 = 250 - 90 = 160 The answer is exact so percent error is zero.


What is 99 over 100 as a percent?

99 over 100 as a percent = 99%


What percent is 50 over 100?

Since the word percent means "of 100", 50 over 100 is equal to 50 percent.
