Answer:

The product participates in a side reaction.

Explanation:

Many are times that chemical reactions do not yield a 100% of the product required.

This is attributed to a number of factors which include;

  • Presence of impurities
  • Side reactions by reactants or products
  • Reactions not attaining completion.
  • Errors during the experiment.

Percentage yield is calculated by diving the actual or experimental yield by theoretical yield and multiplying by 100.
