The theoretical yield of Cl2 from certain starting amounts of MnO2 and HCl was calculated as 60.25 g and 65.02 g, respectively. If the percentage yield of Cl2 is 72%, what is its actual yield?

    The actual yield is 43 g Cl₂.

    The limiting reactant was MnO₂ because it gave the smaller mass of Cl₂.

    ∴ The theoretical yield is 60.25 g Cl₂.

    % yield = actual yield/theoretical yield * 100 %

    Actual yield = theoretical yield * (% yield/100 %) = 60.25 g * (72 %/100%) = 43 g
