What does percent yield indicate?

• The amount of product we should get
• The efficiency of the lab
• The amount of product we actually got
• nothing

2Fe₂O₃ + C → Fe + 3CO₂

You add 28 grams of carbon. You find the actual yield to be 181.2 grams of CO₂. What is the percent yield of CO₂? (Hint: calculate theoretical yield of CO₂ first)
