Principles Of Percent Yield
Consider the following four statements regarding the concept of percent yield in a chemical reaction:
1) Experimental yield must be determined empirically in a laboratory setting.
2) Theoretical yield is calculated using stoichiometry.
3) Percent yield is determined by the ratio of the experimental yield to the theoretical yield.
4) Percent yield can never exceed 100%.
A
All four statements are true.
B
Exactly three statements are true.
C
Exactly two statements are true.
D
Only one statement is true.
