What is predicted yield?

What is percentage yield?
The percentage of the predicted yield obtained. (never 100%)
What factors affect yield?
- Some chemicals get lost along the way.
- Sometimes other reactions take place too.
- Some reactions are reversible and the products turn back into reactants.
What is a mole?
