Percent yield is calculated by using the following formula :
Percent yield = (Experimental yield/Theoretical yield) × 100 %
In the given question, we need to calculate the percent yield of oxygen gas.
The calculated or theoretical yield of oxygen gas = 411 mL
The experimental yield of oxygen gas = 405 mL
Therefore using the formula of percent yield we get
Percent yield of oxygen gas = (Experimental yield of oxygen gas/Theoretical yield of oxygen gas) × 100%
= (405 mL/ 411 mL) × 100%
= (0.985) × 100%
= 98.5 %

What is the volume of oxygen gas released in the decomposition of 35.62 g of potassium chlorate at STP? KClO3 (s) ---> KCl (s) + O2 (g)
Potassium chlorate will react by itself (when heated) to form solid potassium chloride and oxygen gas. If you heat 60.0 g of potassium chlorate and you obtain 20.0 g of oxygen gas, what is your percent yield?
Percentage of Oxygen in Potassium Chlorate Introduction: The thermal decomposition of potassium chlorate can be described by the following equation: 2 KCIO3(s) 2 KCls) + 3 O2(g) Egn 1 (D stands for heating, elevated temperature) In this experiment you will determine the percentage of oxygen in potassium chlorate. You will compare the experimental result with the theoretical percentage calculated from the formula KCIO3. While potassium chlorate decomposes simply by heating, the reaction is very slow. A catalyst is used. Catalyst...
