What is the percent yield of lithium chloride if a reaction starts with 20.0 g lithium hydroxide and yields 6.00 g lithium chloride? LiOH+KCl⟶LiCl+KOH

The percent yield of lithium chloride if a reaction starts with 20.0 g lithium hydroxide and yields 6.00 g lithium chloride is 17.2 %

Explanation:

The balanced chemical reaction is

To calculate the moles, we use the equation:

a) moles of

b) moles of

According to stoichiometry :

1 mole of produces =  1 mole of

Thus 0.83 moles of produce= of

Mass of

The theoretical yield of = 34.9 g

The experimental yield of ethanol = 6.00  g

Now we have to calculate the percent yield of ethanol.

Therefore, the percent yield is, 17.2 %
