How do you convert moles of reactant to moles of product?

• Using the molecular weight of the reactant

• Using the stoichiometric coefficients from the balanced equation

• Using the percent yield

• Using the limiting reactant

What is the purpose of calculating the percent yield?

• To determine the limiting reactant

• To compare the actual yield to the theoretical yield

• To calculate the theoretical yield

What does a percent yield greater than 100% indicate?

• An error in the calculation

• A highly effective reaction

• An impurity in the product

• A theoretical yield greater than expected
