'''Percent Yield''' = (Actual Yield (by mass)) / Theoretical Yield (by mass)) x 100% '''''Actual Yield''''' is the mass of the desired product in the actual experiment. '''''Theoretical Yield''''' is the mass of desired product if everything went perfect in the experiment. This is usually calculated from book knowledge or from experimental data. '''''Example''''' If an experiment yielded 21.7g Cu, but was supposed to yield 22.0g Cu, find the Percent Yield. Answer: (21.7g / 22.0g) x 100% = 98.63% = 98.6%<br> <br> [[Percent Yield Problem Set]]
