In this experiment, we did a Fischer Esterification using excess acetic acid, isopentyl alcohol, and sulfuric acid to form isopentyl acetate. Then sodium bicarbonate and NaCl were used in the extraction step of the experiment. Is there another method we could have used to calculate percent yield other than using the amount of isopentyl acetate? What are the advantages and disadvantages? (Using GC is not the answer we are looking for.)

What can cause a low percent yield? In lab we did fischer esterification using benzoic acid and methanol to yield methyl benzoate. 3.05 grams of benzoic acid were used and 1.10 grams of methyl benzoate were produced. We also washed the product multiple times with water, 10% sodium bicarbonate solution, then saturated sodium chloride solution. Could the washing cause a low percent yield? If so, can you explain why?
