Question

What is the percent yield of CuS for the following reaction given that you start with Of Na₂S and CuSO₄? The actual amount of CuS produced was . Reaction: Na₂S + CuSO₄→ Na₂SO₄ + CuS

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The stoichiometric ratio of CuS to Na₂S is 1:1, so the theoretical yield of CuS is also 11ea8a6b_bbb0_2baa_9ee3_151da826aac9_TB6109_11. The percent yield is calculated by taking the actual yield (11ea8a6b_bbb0_52bc_9ee3_39c6f4811891_TB6109_11) divided by the theoretical yield (11ea8a6b_bbb0_2baa_9ee3_151da826aac9_TB6109_11) and multiplying by 100%: percent yield = (11ea8a6b_bbb0_52bc_9ee3_39c6f4811891_TB6109_11/11ea8a6b_bbb0_2baa_9ee3_151da826aac9_TB6109_11) x 100% ≈ 42.1%. Therefore, the best choice is B.
