Percent Yield
LiOH + HBr LiBr + H 2 O If you start with 10.0 grams of lithium hydroxide, how many grams of lithium bromide will be produced? Find percent yield if an experiment yielded 35.0 grams of lithium bromide.
LiOH + HBr LiBr + H 2 O 10 g LiOH 1 mol LiOH 1 mol LiBr 87 g LiBr = 36.3 g LiBr 24 g LiOH 1 mol LiOH 1 mol LiBr Given 10 g mass-to-mole mole mole-to-mass unknown ratio mass
C 2 H O 2 2 CO H 2 O If you start with 45 grams of ethylene (C 2 H 4 ), how many grams of carbon dioxide will be produced? Find percent yield if an experiment yielded grams of carbon dioxide.
C 2 H O 2 2 CO H 2 O 45 g C 2 H 2 1 mol C 2 H 2 2 mol CO 2 44 g CO 2 = 141 g CO 2 28 g C 2 H 2 1 mol C 2 H 2 1 mol CO 2 Given 45 g mass-to-mole mole mole-to-mass unknown ratio mass
