Step-by-step explanation:

The theoretical yield of our reaction is 1.50 moles, the actual yield of aluminum oxide is 0.885 moles. The percent yield is:

percent yield = actual yield/theoretical yield * 100 %

percent yield = 0.885 moles/(1.50 moles) * 100 %

percent yield = 59.0 %

Answer: The percent yield is 59.0 %.
