Verified step by step guidance1
Identify the formula for percent yield, which compares the actual yield to the theoretical yield: \(\text{Percent Yield} = \left( \frac{\text{Actual Yield}}{\text{Theoretical Yield}} \right) \times 100\%\).
Substitute the given values into the formula: actual yield = 2.18 g and theoretical yield = 3.00 g.
Set up the calculation as: \(\text{Percent Yield} = \left( \frac{2.18}{3.00} \right) \times 100\%\).
Perform the division inside the parentheses to find the decimal fraction representing the yield.
Multiply the decimal by 100 to convert it to a percentage, which gives the percent yield.
