To calculate the percent yield for the reaction, we'll use the balanced chemical reaction that is provided and calculate the theoretical yield of copper -2 nitrate that can be produced from one gram of copper reacting with excess nitric acid, which i have wrong here.

This is supposed to be for h.

N .3.
00:30
So, starting with our one gram of copper, we can conclude.
00:34
Convert that into moles of copper using the molar mass of copper.
00:39
Going to the periodic table, the molar mass of copper is 63 .546 grams for every one mole copper.
00:51
And then we see that one mole copper produces one mole, copper two nitrate.
01:02
Knowing the moles of copper to nitrate, we can then calculate the moles, sorry, the grams of copper two nitrate.
01:08
Nitrate by multiplying by its molar mass...
