Theoretical and Percent Yield

Example: Theoretical Yield

Example: Theoretical Yield

Theoretical yield = 0.00153mol sal. acid *      1 mol ASA      *   180.2g ASA   .

                                                                                        1 mol sal. acid          1 mol ASA

                              

                                    = 0.276 g ASA

 

 

Therefore, in a perfect experiment, 0.276 g of acetylsalicylic acid will be synthesized.
