The efficiency of chemical reactions can be checked by calculating its _ yield.
Correct answer: A. Percentage
- A. Percentage
- B. Actual
- C. Theoretical
- D. Combination of all of these
Explanation
The actual yield is obtained from the reaction. Theoretical yield is calculated from a balanced chemical equation. And the efficiency of a reaction is determined by percentage yield which is " the ratio of actual yield to theoretical yield " multiplied by 100.

About Theoretical and Percentage Yield
Theoretical yield is the maximum product predicted from a balanced equation and the amount of limiting reactant. Work includes identifying the limiting reagent, comparing theoretical and actual yield, and calculating percentage yield using stoichiometric mole relationships.

Phosphoric acid, H3PO4 is one of the main ingredients of soft drinks, detergents, and fertilizers. It can be prepared with a series of reactions: P4 + 5O2 → P4O10 P4O10+6H2O → 4H3PO4Let us say we allow 1000 kg of phosphorus to react with oxygen in the tank to yield 90% of tetra phosphorus decaoxide (P4O10). In the second step of the reaction, we react it with water to yield 97% of H3PO4. How much, in kilogram, of H3PO4 was produced after a series of reactions?
