Answer: Thus the % yield is 86.2%
Explanation:
Percentage yield is the ratio of actual change to the theoretical change in terms of percentage.
The given reaction is :
[tex]Mg+2HCl\rightarrow MgCl_2+H_2[/tex]
To calculate the percent yield :
[tex]\%\text{ yield of reaction}=\frac{\text{Actual yield}}{\text{Theoretical yield}}\times 100[/tex]
Given : Actual pressure increase = 0.25 atm
Theoretical pressure change = 0.29 atm.
[tex]\%\text{ yield of reaction}=\frac{0.25}{0.29}\times 100=86.2\%[/tex]
Thus the % yield is 86.2%
