Chapter 8, Problem 8.56QP

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

From the given mass of reactants and actual yield of lithium nitride, calculate the percent yield of reaction and theoretical yield of lithium nitride

Concept introduction:

• The quantity of product produced by limiting reactant is called theoretical yield.
• The actual yield is defined as quantity of product obtained when a chemical reaction practically done in laboratory.
• $\text{percent yield =}\frac{\text{actual yield in g}}{\text{theoretical yield in g}}\text{×}\text{100}$
