I. Introduction The Percent Yield lab is designed to further the students’ understanding of percent yield by having them predict how much material will be produced from a reaction; specifically a double replacement reaction. In order to perform the lab‚ a solid understanding of percent yield is necessary. According to Prentice Hall Chemistry book‚ percent yield is comprised of two main components. The first is the theoretical yield. The theoretical yield is what is calculated and predicted. It is

Purpose The purpose of the experiment is to determine the percent yield of the precipitate; by performing double displacement reaction between solutions of two different compounds. Introduction First of all when making a solution of two different compounds; there will many variables that can be considered during the experiment. However‚ the variables are controlled variables. Controlled Variables ∙amount of water that will be dissolved with the compound (amount of water until the compound is

Dr. Mbah December 6‚ 2012 Percent Yield of a Chemical Reaction Introduction Yield is the quantity of product in a chemical reaction‚ the theoretical yield of a reaction can be calculated using mole ratios from the balanced chemical reaction. The actual yield has to be obtained and measured in a laboratory. It may be usual to often find the actual yield to be less than the theoretical yield due to many different factors. This gives rise to the concept of percent yield. Sodium bicarbonate and hydrochloric

The percent yield of meso-1‚2-dibromo-1‚2-diphenylethane was calculated to be 66.36% and with a melting point of 235.1°C. Therefore‚ it can be concluded that this experiment was successfully conducted as the percent yield obtained is only 33.64% off from the equilibrium point‚ and because the melting point met the literature value. The percent yield for the product was less than 100%‚ indicating that were experimental errors‚ such as an undesirable side reaction‚ or more likely‚ an incomplete reaction

of reaction used in this lab experiment. Our objective was to see how a primary alkyl halide reacted with an alcohol. We did a conversion of n-butanol to 1-bromobutane. Br- ions is the nucleophile for this reaction which is generated from an aqueous solution of NaBr. The catalyst that converted the OH functional group of butanol to a better leaving group (H2O) was the Sulfuric Acid.

The percent yield was calculated to be 171% indicating a source of error. The high percent yield was due to the product being wet since we did not have enough time to dry the product with the vacuum filter—since we had to evacuate the building due to the fire alarm. If we were able to vacuum filter our product more‚ the percent yield would be close to 100%. 1. Assign the peaks in your NMR spectrum of your salicylic acid. See NMR spectrum on back 2.

Title: Prep of t-Butyl Chloride via SN1 Reaction Purpose: The purpose of this experiment is to synthesize tert-butyl chloride via an SN1 reaction. t-Butyl Chloride was synthesized from t-Butyl Alcohol using hydrochloric acid in separatory funnel; isolation of t-Butyl Chloride was done under distillation conditions. The experiment resulted in 8.29grams of purified compound‚ which is a 66.27 percent yield. Procedure: As per handout with changes Equation: Mechanism: Results: (Scan

Description Whenever we do experiments‚ the actual result is a little different from the result we predicted. In chemistry‚ this discrepancy is compared by calculating the percent yield. In this lesson‚ we will define percent yield‚ and go over a few examples. !!!What is Percent Yield? Sometimes you look at a recipe and it says how many servings it will make if you follow the amounts listed on there. There are times‚ however‚ that the number of servings after you have made the food is not the
