% yield = 80.719

Further explanation

Given

22.0 g of Mgl₂

25.0 g of Mg

25.0 g of l₂

Required

The percent yield

Solution

Reaction

Mg + I₂⇒ MgI₂

mol Mg = 25 g : 24.305 g/mol = 1.029

mol I₂ = 25 g : 253.809 g/mol = 0.098

Limiting reactant = I₂

Excess reactant = Mg

mol MgI₂ based on I₂, so mol MgI₂ = 0.098

Mass MgI₂ (theoretical):

= mol x MW

= 0.098 x 278.114

= 27.255 g

% yield = (actual/theoretical) x 100%

% yield = (22 / 27.255) x 100%

% yield = 80.719
