To calculate the percent yield from the theoretical yield and the actual yield, we can use the formula:

\[
\text{Percent Yield} = \left( \frac{\text{Actual Yield}}{\text{Theoretical Yield}} \right) \times 100
\]

In your case, you have the following information:

- Theoretical Yield = 20 g
- Percent Yield = 95%

To find the actual yield, we can rearrange the formula:

\[
\text{Actual Yield} = \left( \frac{\text{Percent Yield}}{100} \right) \times \text{Theoretical Yield}
\]

Substituting the given values:

\[
\text{Actual Yield} = \left( \frac{95}{100} \right) \times 20 \, \text{g} = 0.95 \times 20 \, \text{g}
\]

\[
\text{Actual Yield} = 19 \, \text{g}
\]

So, the actual yield of the chemical reaction is 19 g, and the percent yield is already provided as 95%. If you need to calculate percent yield for a different reaction or additional information, please provide that data!
