Which statement correctly describes the actual yield and the theoretical yield of a reaction?

A
The actual yield is calculated from the reactant amounts, but the theoretical yield must be measured for each instance of a reaction.
B
The actual yield depends on the reaction conditions, but the theoretical yield varies only with reactant amounts.
C
The actual yield represents the maximum yield possible, and the theoretical yield assumes perfect reaction conditions.
D
The actual yield is calculated from the amount of the limiting reactant, and the theoretical yield is calculated from the amount of the excess reactant.
