Percent Yield • The amounts of products calculated in the stoichiometric problems in this chapter so far represent theoretical yields. • The theoretical yield is themaximum amount of product that can be produced from a given amount of reactant. • In most chemical reactions, the amount of product obtained is less than the theoretical yield.
Percent Yield • There are many reasons for this. • Some of the reactant may be used in competing side reactions that reduce the amount of the desired product. • Also, once a product is formed, it often is usually collected in impure form, and some of the product is often lost during the purification process.
Percent Yield • The measured amount of a product obtained from a reaction is called the actual yield of that product. • Chemists are usually interested in the efficiency of a reaction. • The efficiency is expressed by comparing the actual and theoretical yields. • The percent yield is theratio of the actual yield to the theoretical yield, multiplied by 100.
Percent Yield Sample Problem A chemist runs a reaction based upon the following equation. PCl3 + Cl2æ PCl5 (AB) The chemist starts with 50 grams of PCl3 and produces 73 grams of PCl5. What was the chemist’s percent yield for this reaction? % YIELD = 73 grams 96.4 % = X 100 75.7 grams Determined from a mass to mass stoichiometric calculation
Percent Yield Sample Problem Methanol (CH3OH) can be produced through the reaction of CO and H2. CO + H2æ CH3OH If 100 grams of H2 reacts to produce 750 grams of CH3OH, what is the percent yield for this reaction? • 2 % YIELD = 750 grams 93.8 % = X 100 800 grams Determined from a mass to mass stoichiometric calculation
