You perform an experiment producing 15.5 grams of calcium carbonate. If the theoretical yield of the reaction is 18.8 grams, then what is the percent yield

82.45%

Explanation:

Data obtained from the question include:

Experimental yield = 15.5g

Theoretical yield = 18.8g

Percentage yield = ?

The percentage yield of calcium carbonate can be obtained as follow:

%yield = Experimental yield/Theoretical yield x100

%yield = 15.5/18.8 x 100

%yield = 82.45%

Therefore, the percentage yield of calcium carbonate is 82.45%
