WHAT YOU’LL LEARN TO DO: Analyze data to determine the limiting reactant in an experiment and understand the concept of theoretical and percent yields.
Learning Objectives
By the end of this section, you will be able to:
- Use stoichiometry to determine the limiting reactant.
- Calculate the theoretical yield.
- Calculate the percent yield of a reaction.
LEARNING ACTIVITIES
The learning activities for this section include:
| Assignment | Approximate Time to Complete | Due Date |
| Read Introduction | 5 minutes | Before Lab |
|
Complete the Prelab Problems (Make sure you get this signed before you leave lab!) |
15 minutes | Before Lab |
| Complete Prelab Quiz Material will come from the lab introduction, safety, procedure, and the prelab questions. |
10 minutes | Before Lab |
| Complete Lab Handout | Varies | Due at the Next Lab Meeting |
*All students are expected to participate in the completion of the prelab assignment regardless of whether the assignment is an individual or group assignment.
*Prelab quizzes must be completed prior to coming to lab for a student to be admitted to class.
