Question

Which of the following is true for the percentage yield of a reaction?

А. It is the combined yield from the excess reactant and the limiting reactant.

B. It is the calculated yield of the product based on stoichiometry alone.

C. It is calculated based on stoichiometry as well as experimentation.

D. It is the yield of the product from the limiting reactant alone.​

Answer 1

Answer:

It is always less than the theoretical yield

Explanation:

For many chemical reactions, the actual yield is usually less than the theoretical yield. This is due to possible loss in the process or inefficiency of the chemical reaction.
