Answer:

131 mg

Explanation:

Percent yield = 89%

Actual yield = 117 mg

Percent yield is given by

[tex]\text{Percent yield}=\dfrac{\text{Actual yield}}{\text{Theoretical yield}}\times 100\\\Rightarrow 89=\dfrac{117}{\text{Theoretical yield}}\times 100\\\Rightarrow \text{Theoretical yield}=\dfrac{117}{89}\times 100\\\Rightarrow \text{Theoretical yield}=131.46\approx 131\ \text{mg}[/tex]

The theoretical yield, for this reaction is 131 mg.
