  1. Percentage Yield

  2. Assignment: Use Chapter 8 • Define the following terms: yield, theoretical yield, actual yield, percentage yield. • Based on your reading, give 4 reasons why the actual yield in a chemical reaction often falls short of the theoretical yield. • Read the sample problem on the next slide and try the practice problem on slide number 5 • When 5.00 g of KClO3 is heated it decomposes according to the equation: 2KClO3 2KCl + 3O2 a) Calculate the theoretical yield of oxygen. b) Give the % yield if 1.78 g of O2 is produced. c) How much O2 would be produced if the percentage yield was 78.5%?

  3. actual yield theoretical yield x 100% Answers 1) Yield: the amount of product Theoretical yield: the amount of product we expect, based on stoichiometric calculations Actual yield: amount of product from a procedure or experiment (this is given in the question) Percent yield: • 2) • Not all product is recovered (e.g. spattering) • Reactant impurities (e.g. weigh out 100 g of chemical which has 20 g of junk) • A side reaction occurs (e.g. MgO vs. Mg3N2) • The reaction does not go to completion

Step 1: write the balanced chemical equation 2H2 + O2 2H2O Step 2: determine actual and theoretical yield. Actual is given, theoretical is calculated: # g H2O= 16 g H2 Step 3: Calculate % yield % yield = x 100% x 100%

Step 1: write the balanced chemical equation N2 + 3H2 2NH3 Step 2: determine actual and theoretical yield. Actual is given, theoretical is calculated: # g NH3= 20.0 mol H2 Step 3: Calculate % yield % yield = x 100% x 100%
