what is percent yield
Percent yield is the amount of a compound obtained from a chemical synthesis reaction with respect to the theoretically expected amount. This is a percentage value.
Converting from moles to grams and back requires the use of a chemical's ...
molar mass
Mass of an the reactants must equal the mass of the products
law of conservation of mass.

Some underwater welding is done via the thermite reaction, in which rust (Fe2O3) reacts with aluminum to produce iron and aluminum oxide (Al2O3). In one such reaction, 258 g of aluminum and excess rust produced 464 g of iron. What was the percent yield of the reaction?
464 g = actual yield
Fe2O3 + 2 Al --> Al2O3 + 2 Fe
% yield = Actual/theoretical x 100
87%
This is the reactant that is left over after a chemical reaction has occurred
excess reactant
These numbers indicate the mole ratios for a balanced equation.

HNO3 + KOH → KNO3 + H2O
When 261.7 grams of HNO3 are reacted with 343.71 grams of KOH, 267 grams of KNO3 are produced. What is the percent yield of this reaction?
Correct answer is 63.59%
• 100% yield would be 419.9 grams KNO3
• HNO3 is the limiting reagent
This is used to compare the moles required for a reaction of one reactant to another reactant or the product being made.
mole ratios
The amount of product that is produced from a reaction can be referred to as the experimental yield

If 292 grams of NO are reacted with 439 grams of NH3, how many grams of H2O will be produced if the reaction proceeds with a 53.1% yield?
4 NH3 + 6 NO → 5 N2 + 6 H2O
Correct answer is 93.1 grams H2O
• 100% yield would be 175 grams H2O
• NO is the limiting reagent
This is the amount of product that will be made if all the reactants fully react with each other.
theoretical yield
This is the reactant that is used up first in a reaction

How many grams of PF5 can be formed from 9.46 g of PF3 and 9.42 g of XeF4 in the following reaction?
What is the limiting reagent of
2PF3 + XeF4 ---> 2PF5 + Xe
PF3 ⇒ 9.46 g / 87.968 g/mol = 0.10754 mol
XeF4 ⇒ 9.42 g / 207.282 g/mol = 0.045445 mol
2) Determine limiting reagent:
PF3 ⇒ 0.10754 / 2 = 0.05377
XeF4 ⇒ 0.045445 / 1 = 0.045445
XeF4 is limiting
