To calculate percent yields for the reaction that are above


100%. Is this result a violation of the law of conservation
of matter? Discuss the significance of your calculated yield
Hypothetically, no, obviously not, be that as it may, tentatively, yes, you can get an APPARENT
yield > 100% in the event that you made a mistake some place measured the compound when it
was not totally dry. Yield greater than 100 may have following reasons:

Measure the volume of gas advanced yet did not lessen it to STP accurately.
Applied the wrong formula...Na2SO3 rather than Na2SO4 and so on

Its impractical on the grounds that it would conflict with the law of preservation of matter. The
main way a test could have results like that ascertained is on account of somebody's blunder in
the trial, for example, a mixed up estimation or tainting sooner or later.
Yield is moles of item over moles of reactant, to get higher than 100% would require more item
than reactant, which is unthinkable.

Significance of Yield:
The higher the percent yield, the higher the benefit for the maker.
A maker who can get a higher percent yield from a response will have a greater amount of the
item to offer. This will deliver more benefit for the producer. Commercial ventures dependably
make progress toward high percent yields.
Yield is critical in light of the fact that:

Chemical responses regularly shape by-items and also the expected item

In most responses, not the majority of the reactants really respond

What is left toward the end of a reaction is therefore normally a blend of item and pollutions
(debasements being by-items and unreacted beginning materials).
Accomplishing high rate yields is especially vital in businesses that depend on natural
combination, for example, the pharmaceutical business. It may require several stages to integrate
a medication particle if there are ten stages, each of which has a rate yield of 90%, the general
yield is just 35%.
