Using the notes taken from, review of example of work from, PercentYield webpage, show all work to solve the following problems:<br> <br> 1) A baker is making chocolate cookies. He is following a recipe that should make 36 cookies. After baking the cookies, he actually has 24 cookies.<br> a) What is the actual/experimental yield of cookies?<br> b) What is the theoretical/stoichiometric yield of cookies?<br> <br> c) What is the percent yield of cookies (show work here, round to 1st decimal place in percentage):<br> <br> <br> <br> <br> 2) Instead of going to the bakery, we go to the chemical plant. Here they are making water from its elements following the balanced chemical equation:<br> 2 H<sub>2 (g) </sub> + 1 O<sub>2 (g) </sub> ---> 2 H<sub>2</sub>O<sub>1 (g)</sub> <br> One run in the plant, 16.2g of Oxygen gas was consumed (assume have as much Hydrogen gas as needed). The process engineer determined that 13.7g of water was actually produced.<br> a) What is the actual/experimental yield of water?<br> b) What is the theoretical/stoichiometric yield of water? (show all appropriate work below)<br> <br> <br> <br> <br> <br> <br> <br> <br> <br> <br> <br> <br> <br> <br> <br> c) What is the percent yield of water (show work here, round to 1st decimal place in percentage)<br> <br> <br> <br> <br> <P style="page-break-before: always"> <br> Answers: 1a) 24 cookies, 1b) 36 cookies, 1c) 66.7%<br> 2a) 13.7g H<sub>2</sub>O<sub>1</sub> 2b) 18.2g H<sub>2</sub>O<sub>1</sub> 2c) 75.3%<br> <br>
