Hi there.
00:03
This question is a percent yield question.
00:06
So to solve it, we need the equation that is used to calculate percent yield.
00:11
Percent yield is calculated by taking the actual yield, sometimes called the experimental, so what you actually get when you do the experiment, and dividing that by the theoretical yield.
00:28
The theoretical yield is the amount that's expected.
00:31
Typically the theoretical yield is determined by calculations, mathematical calculations.
00:38
So we divide those two values and then it's a percent, so we then have to multiply by 100%.
00:46
In this question, we want to know how many grams the reaction actually produced.
00:54
So we are trying to find the actual yield, question mark there.
01:00
But we have the percent yield, it's 15 .01%.
01:12
Actual yield is what we're trying to find.
01:17
We are given the theoretical yield as being 54 .72 grams...
