Percent Yield
Our newest subject in stoichiometry is the percent yield of a chemical reaction. In order to calculate percent yield, the actual yield has to be given within the problem. The formula for percent yield is (actual yield/theoretical yield) x100 . Calculating the theoretical yield requires converting the limiting reagent into the desired product of the reaction. I found this link to be helpful in understanding and calculating percent yield.

This was very help full especially the picture. I would have liked to see an example so the reader knows where you get the different numbers.
