Answer:

C) The percent yield is 60.66%

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Theoretical yield of the reaction = 872.7 g

Experimental yield = 529.4 g

To determine:

% yield of the reaction

Formula:


% yield = (Experimental\ yield)/(Theoretical\ yield) * 100


%\ yield = (529.4 g)/(872.7\ g) * 100\\\\= 60.66%
