I have a buddy who recycles electronics, and isolates metals from the connector pins electrical boards. He isolates gold, for example, and purifies it the best he can, then sells it along with his other scrap metal. This last go around he was able to isolate 3.00 g of Au with a process he claims results in a 80.0% yield. If he is correct, what was his theoretical yield

Answer:

Theoretical yield = 3.75g

Explanation:

Percent yield is defined as one hundred times the ratio between actual yield and theoretical yield. The expression is:

Percent yield = Actual Yield / Theoretical Yield * 100

In the problem, your actual yield was 3-00g.

Percent yield is 80.0%.

Solving for theoretical yield:

80% = 3.00g / Theoretical yield * 100

Theoretical yield = 3.00g / 80.0% * 100

Theoretical yield = 3.75g
