actual yield
|
the amount of product that forms when a reaction is carried out int he laboratory
|
|
excess reagent
|
a reagent present in a quantity that is more than sufficient to react with a limiting reagent; any reactant that remains after the limiting reagent is used up in a chemical reaction
|
|
limiting reagent
|
any reactant that is used up first in a chemical reaction; it determines the amount of product that can be formed in the reaction
|
|
mole ratio
|
a conversion factor derived from the coefficients of a balanced chemical equation interpreted in terms of moles
|
|
percent yield
|
the ratio of the actual yield to the theoretical yield for a chemical reaction expressed as a percentage; a measure of the efficiency of a reaction
|
|
stoichiometry
|
that portion of chemistry dealing with numerical relationships in chemical reactions; the calculation of quantities of substances involved in chemical equations
|
|
theoretical yield
|
the amount of product that could form during a reaction calculated from a balanced chemical equation' it represents the maximum amount of product that could be formed from a given amount of reactant.
