1) If we mix 25 grams of sodium bromide with a 25 grams of
potassium chloride, what will our
theoretical yield of sodium chloride be in grams? Start by writing
the BALANCED chemical
equation.
2) If our actual yield from this reaction was 18 grams of sodium
chloride, what would our percent
yield for this reaction be?
3) Is the answer in question 2 reasonable? If so, explain why
you think this was a reasonable answer.
If not, explain what is wrong with it and discuss possible reasons
you might get this answer in the
laboratory.
4) What are some factors that might cause our percent yield to
be greater than 100%? What are some
factors that might cause it to be less than 100%? Make sure you
discuss specific cases of how
both might happen.
