Percent yield: actual vs. theoretical
Given how much reactant went in and how much product actually came out, find the percent yield: work out the theoretical yield by mass stoichiometry, then take actual ÷ theoretical × 100. The theoretical yield is machine-computed from a sourced, balanced equation. Type the percent — a common wrong answer (the ratio inverted, the ×100 dropped, or the reactant mass used as the denominator) is named when you enter it, never handed to you as an option to rule out.

For 3 CaCl₂ + 2 Na₃PO₄ → Ca₃(PO₄)₂ + 6 NaCl: 22.1956 g of CaCl₂ is reacted and 12.8568 g of NaCl is collected. What is the percent yield?
