22/11/99 Assignment: Read 5.6 up to sample (238-9) Define the following terms: yield, theoretical yield, actual yield, percentage yield. Based on your reading, give 4 reasons why the actual yield in a chemical reaction often falls short of the theoretical yield. Read the sample problem on the next slide and try the practice problem on slide number 5 When 5.00 g of KClO3 is heated it decomposes according to the equation: 2KClO3 ? 2KCl + 3O2 a) Calculate the theoretical yield of oxygen. b) Give the % yield if 1.78 g of O2 is produced. c) How much O2 would be produced if the percentage yield was 78.5%? Answers 1) Yield: the amount of product Theoretical yield: the amount of product we expect, based on stoichiometric calculations Actual yield: amount of product from a procedure or experiment (this is given in the question) Percent yield: Sample problem Q - What is the % yield of H2O if 138 g H2O is produced from 16 g H2 and excess O2? Step 1: write the balanced chemical equation 2H2 + O2 ? 2H2O Step 2: determine actual and theoretical yield. Actual is given, theoretical is calculated: Practice problem Q - What is the % yield of NH3 if 40.5 g NH3 is produced from 20.0 mol H2 and excess N2? Step 1: write the balanced chemical equation N2 + 3H2 ? 2NH3 Step 2: determine actual and theoretical yield. Actual is given, theoretical is calculated: Answers 4) 2KClO3 ? 2KCl + 3O2 a) b) c) Challenging question 2H2 + O2 ? 2H2O What is the % yield of H2O if 58 g H2O are produced by combining 60 g O2 and 7.0 g H2? Hint: determine limiting reagent first More Percent Yield Questions Note: try “shortcut” for limiting reagent problems The electrolysis of water forms H2 and O2. 2H2O ? 2H2 + O2 What is the % yield of O2 if 12.3 g of O2 is produced from the decomposition of 14.0 g H2O? 107 g of oxygen is produced by heating 300 grams of potassium chlorate. Calculate % yield. 2KClO3 ? 2KCI + 3O2 What is the % yield of ferrous sulphide if 3.00 moles o
