Calculating Theoretical Yield in Chemical Reactions

The video is a tutorial on how to calculate theoretical yields in chemistry. The host explains the concept of theoretical yield as the maximum mass of product that can be formed during a reaction when assuming the reaction has gone to completion. The tutorial presents a step-by-step process to calculate theoretical yields, using examples and equations to show how to calculate the number of moles of reactant available and determine the number of moles of product that will form. The video also shows how to calculate the molecular mass of a compound and convert units of measurement. Lastly, the tutorial shows how to calculate the percentage yield by comparing the actual yield obtained with the theoretical yield.
