Question

A student carried out the Synthesis of Alum experiment and obtained a percent yield of 62.1%. If the mass of the student's product was 3.916g, calculate the students theoretical yield of alum

Answer 1

the relationship for percent yield is\[\% \space yield = \frac{actual \space yield}{theoretical \space yield}\]You know two of the three pieces, rearrange the equation to solve for the theoretical
