You have a sample of contaminated benzoic acid that weighs 2.014 g. After performing a proper recrystallization with proper drying, the mass of your purified benzoic acid is 1.611 g. What is your percent recovery rounded to the nearest tenths

The percent recovery of benzoic acid is 80.0 %

Explanation:

To calculate the percent recovery of the sample, we use the equation:

Mass of purified sample = 1.611 g

Mass of contaminated benzoic acid = 2.014 g

Putting values in above equation, we get:

Hence, the percent recovery of benzoic acid is 80.0 %

so what is the problem with your lab report and whats the subject of the lab report? i will you
