Chapter 11, Problem 122E

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation: The percent yield is to be determined for the given reaction which is allowed to proceed until the pressure does not change.

Concept Introduction:

The relation between pressure $\left(P\right)$ and number of moles $\left(n\right)$ of gas is:

$\frac{P_1}{n_1}=\frac{P_2}{n_2}$

Total pressure is equal to the sum of partial pressure.

Percent yield is calculated as:

$\text{Percent}\text{yield}=\frac{\text{Actual yield}}{\text{Theoretical}\text{yield}}\text{×100\%}$
