Answer #1

The reaction is

             Trans- 1,2-dibenzoyl ethylene …………………………….> Cis- 1,2-dibenzoyl ethylene

Mol. Wt. : 236.26 g/mol                                                                     236.26 g/mol

From the above transformation

236.26 g of trans-1,2-dibenzoyl ethylene produces cis-1,2-dibenzoyl ethylene = 236.26 g

0.192 g of trans-1,2-dibenzoyl ethylene produces cis-1,2-dibenzoyl ethylene = 0.192 g

Theoretical yield = 0.192 g

Actual yield = 0.082 g

% yield = (Actual yield/Theoretical yield) x 100% = 42.71%
