Percent Yield Practice Problems

Use the equation Ag2S + 2HCl à 2AgCl + H2s to answer questions 11 and 12

11.  If the theoretical yield of AgCl from the equation was 48.7g, but the actual yield when the product was weighed after the reaction was 40.2g, what was the percent yield of AgCl?

12.  At the completion of her lab, Ashley measured the mass of H2S at 7.1g. Her Stoichiometry calculations showed that her yield should have been 9.2g. What was the percent yield in her experiment?
