O Levels Chemistry (5070)•5070/12/M/J/19

Explanation
Percentage yield calculation
Steps:
- Calculate molar mass of MgSO4 (120 g/mol) and Mg(OH)2 (58 g/mol).
- Moles of MgSO4 = 1.20 g / 120 g/mol = 0.01 mol (limiting reactant, 1:1 stoichiometry with Mg(OH)2).
- Theoretical yield of Mg(OH)2 = 0.01 mol × 58 g/mol = 0.58 g.
- Actual yield (0.92 g) exceeds theoretical yield, making percentage yield >100% impossible.
