% yield is the amount obtained from a reaction divided by the amount that can possibly be obtained times 100.

% yield=(actual yield/theoretical yield) * 100%

actual yield=the real amount of product that is actually produced in the reaction.

theoretical yield=the imaginary amount of product that is likely to form.
