Sam follows the directions on a box of pancake mix. the box says that it makes 10 pancakes, but he is able to make 8 pancakes from the ingredients. in this case, the number 10 represents which type of yield? a) actual yield b) theoretical yield

Given that the pancake mix can be used for the preparation of 10 pancakes. The other ingredients added to the pancake mix would be eggs, cheese, milk, salt and baking soda. If all of thee ingredients are added to the pan cake mix in required proportions, we can make 10 pan cakes. So, the theoretical yield will be 10 pancakes. But in real Sam was able to prepare only 8 pancakes. That means the number of pancakes produced was limited by the amount of other ingredients. So, the actual yield will be 8 pancakes.

Hence the correct answer B) Theoretical yield

theoretical yield

Explanation:

each chemical family is represented as a group or column on the periodic table. based on chemical properties, there are 6 types of chemical families. group 1 represents alkali metals, group 2 represents alkaline earth metals, groups 3 to 12 represent transition metals, groups 13 to 16 represent non-metals and other metals, group 17 represents halogens and group 18 represents noble gases.
