How reversible reactions affect yield?

Reversible reactions can significantly impact yield because they do not proceed to completion; instead, they reach a dynamic equilibrium where both reactants and products are present. This means that the concentration of products can be lower than expected, affecting the overall yield. To improve yield, conditions such as temperature, pressure, and concentration can be manipulated to favor the formation of products. Additionally, removing products or using catalysts can help shift the equilibrium towards the desired side, enhancing yield.
