Concept Introduction:
Mole is S.I. unit. The number of moles is calculated as ratio of mass of compound to molar mass of compound.
Molar mass is sum of the total mass in grams of all atoms that make up mole of particular molecule that is mass of 1 mole of compound. The S.I unit is
The expression to relate number of moles, mass and molar mass of compound is as follows:
Percent yield is ratio of actual yield by theoretical yield. Actual yield is amount of actual product formed in
Theoretical yield is amount of product formed from reactant according to stoichiometry in balanced chemical reaction.
The expression for percent yield is as follows:
