Excess reactant:
                A reactant which is present in large amount in a chemical reaction & some of its amount left after the completion of chemical reaction is called excess reactant.

The amount of product is termed as yield.

Theoretical Yield:
The amount of the product that is expected to be formed according to the calculations based on balanced chemical equation is called theoretical yield.
