CaO + H2O -> Ca(OH)2 3.50g of Ca(OH)2 was made from 4.20g of CaO? What is the % yield of Ca(OH)2?

The % yield of Ca(OH)₂ : 62.98%

Percent yield is the compare of the amount of product obtained from a reaction with the amount you calculated

General formula:

Percent yield = (Actual yield / theoretical yield )x 100%

An actual yield is the amount of product actually produced by the reaction. A theoretical yield is the amount of product that you calculate from the reaction equation according to the product and reactant coefficients

Reaction

CaO + H₂O ⇒ Ca(OH)₂

mass CaO= 4.2 g

mol CaO(MW=56,0774 g/mol) :

mol Ca(OH)₂ based on mol CaO

mol ratio CaO : Ca(OH)₂,= 1 : 1, so mol Ca(OH)₂ = 0.075

mass Ca(OH)₂(MW=74,093 g/mol) ⇒ theoretical

% yield :

i just learnt this recently but i need to look through my notes again

ugh fiel iente of insistí is did kiwis jaj
