The Percent Recovery Calculator shows you exactly how to calculate percent recovery for a lab purification or isolation procedure — recrystallization, extraction, filtration, distillation — and clears up the single most common point of confusion in undergraduate chemistry labs: percent recovery is not the same thing as percent yield, even though students constantly mix the two up on lab reports. Use the Percent Recovery tab to calculate recovery from starting and recovered mass, the Percent Yield tab to calculate the related-but-different value for a chemical reaction, or the Multi-Step Recovery tab to find your overall recovery across several purification steps…
