A 0.266 g piece of solid magnesium reacts with gaseous oxygen from the atmosphere to form solid magnesium oxide. In the laboratory a student weighs the mass of the magnesium oxide collected from this reaction as 0.244 g.
What is the percent yield of this reaction?
1) Balanced Chemical Equation
2Mg(s) +O2 (g) -----> 2MgO (s)
Lab data:
Magnesium piece = 0.266 grams
Magnesium Oxide= 0.244 grams
2) Using the initial mass of magnesium, calculate the moles of magnesium-
Molar Mass of Mg = 24.31g/mol
Moles of Mg = 0.266 grams/24.31g/mol = 0.01094 mol
Mg reacts with atmospheric O2, so O2 is not a limiting reagent.
3) calculate the moles of magnesium oxide produced-
2 moles of Mg produces 2 moles of MgO
0.01094 moles of Mg produce 0.01094 moles of MgO
4) Calculate the mass of magnesium oxide.
Molar Mass of MgO = 40.31g/mol
Mass of MgO = 40.31g/mol x 0.01094 mol = 0.441g = Theoretical yield
5) %Yield = (Actual yield/ Theoretical yield) x100
= (0.244 g/0.441g) x 100 = 55.32
Percent Yield = 55.32%
