| One or more reactants in a chemical reaction are often used in excess. The theoretical yield is something used in chemistry. Stochiometry is a branch of chemistry that deals with relative quantities of reactants and products in a chemical reaction. The theoretical yield is therefore calculated based on the molar amount of the [[limiting reactant]], taking into account the [[stoichiometry]] of the reaction. For the calculation it is usually assumed that there is only one reaction involved.

| The ideal or ''theoretical yield'' of a chemical reaction would be 100%, a value that is impossible to achieve due to limitations in measurement accuracy. According to Vogel's Textbook of Practical Organic Chemistry, yields around 100% are called ''quantitative'', yields above 90% are called ''excellent'', yields above 80% are ''very good'', yields above 70% are ''good'', yields above 50% are ''fair'', and yields below 40% are called ''poor''.<ref name=vogel /> It should however be noted that these names are arbitrary and not universally accepted, and for many reactions these expectations may be unrealistically high. Yields may appear to be above 100% when products are impure, as the measured weight of the product will include the weight of any impurities. Purification steps always lower the yield and the reported yields usually refer to the yield of the final purified product.

The writer is known as Irwin. One of the issues he enjoys most is ice skating but he is struggling to find time for it. For years he's been residing in North Dakota and his family loves it. In her professional lifestyle she is a payroll clerk but she's always wanted her personal business.
