Participation earns 4 points of wealth! 10 wealth points as a reward for correct answers or in-depth discussions! :lol Question: What is meant by “yield”? :o Answer: The ratio of the resulting product to the raw materials used is called the yield. =============================== Promotion of petrochemical activities: ☛Notice on the launch of the large-scale event “I’m saving energy – where are you?” in the petrochemical area: http://bbs.hcbbs.com/thread-1579199-1-1.html (Source: Haichuan Chemical Industry Forum). This event offers awards in both text and image categories. When there are over 200 entries, an additional special prize will be awarded; the value of this prize is 600 Haichuan coins. If there are more than 300 entries, the special prize increases to 1,000 Haichuan coins, and if there are 500 entries, it rises to 1,500 Haichuan coins. First prize: 3 Haichuan commemorative water cups. Second prize: 5 winners, each receiving 120 Haichuan coins. Honorable mentions: several winners, each receiving 200 wealth points. --------------------------------------------------------------- ☛“My plant, my home” – Photo competition (10 wealth points per photo): http://bbs.hcbbs.com/thread-1495069-1-1.html (Source: Haichuan Chemical Industry Forum)
The ratio of the total amount of the desired product to the total amount of raw materials used is known as the yield; it reflects the operational efficiency of a facility. Our hydrogenation yield is 99.5 percent.
The ratio of the final number of products to the number of raw materials!
Yield refers to the percentage of the target product produced, based on the amount of reactant fed in. It is generally expressed as a mass percentage or a volume percentage. That is, yield = (actual amount of target product produced) / (theoretical amount of target product that should be produced) × 100% = (amount of raw material used to produce the target product) / (amount of raw material fed in) × 100%
The ratio of the actual amount of product produced by using a certain quantity of raw materials to the theoretically calculated amount of product that should be produced.
The ratio of the actual amount of product produced by using a certain quantity of raw materials to the theoretically calculated amount of product that should be produced
The ratio of the output volume of a certain product to the amount of that product in the raw materials
It refers to the ratio of the actual amount of product produced by using a certain quantity of raw materials in a chemical reaction or related chemical industrial processes, to the theoretical amount of product that could be produced.
