Frequently Asked Questions

What is theoretical yield?

Theoretical yield is the maximum amount of product that can be formed from given amounts of reactants, assuming complete reaction with no losses. It is calculated using stoichiometry from the balanced chemical equation.

Why is actual yield less than theoretical yield?

Actual yield is less due to incomplete reactions, side reactions, loss during transfer or purification, impure reagents, and equilibrium limitations.
