In this episode, we talk about moles and yield.

Calculating the amount of substances in chemistry often involves the concept of moles. 

We outline methods to determine the number of moles using either the concentration and volume of a solution or the mass and relative formula mass of a substance. 

Furthermore, we explain how to calculate the theoretical yield of a reaction based on moles and a balanced chemical equation, which represents the maximum possible product.

Finally, the episode details how to determine the percentage yield by comparing the actual yield (obtained experimentally) to this calculated theoretical yield. These calculations are fundamental for assessing the efficiency of a chemical reaction.
