Talk:Yield (chemistry)
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Slight Modification
The maximal yield of a chemical reaction would be 100%, a value that is never reached.
There are some reactions that can give 100% yields, if the chemist working them up is especially talented. Very few though. I changed "never" to "rarely"
[edit] Merge with theoretical yield
Propose merge with yield (chemistry). The theoretical yield article does not link from any other article and overlaps with the other yield article. My first attempt at merge was countered. I think I did carefully analyse if there were non-overlapping segments and i did not find any. Somebody else should have a go at it if and when we proceed V8rik 18:32, 21 November 2006 (UTC)
[edit] References
I find the lack of citations of references disturbing on this page. How can we know what is put here is the true way to work out a reactions yield?
Also if all the definitions of yield are together, it is easier to understand them all with reference of one to the other
- I added the requested reference but do consult the Wikipedia:Scientific citation guidelines and Wikipedia:Assume good faith

I found this article to be very helpful with my chem lab proj. and therefor believe i should stay as is unless more detailed info is included and the precent yeild information is cited regaurding a correct experiment ie (40%-50%= acceptable experiment and 90%= expert) i dont think it should merge as yeild chem
