Question
A student begins the experiment with a 0.5287 g sample of aluminum can. At the start of week 2, the student determines that 5.0109 g of potassium alum, KAl(SO4)2∙12H2O, were synthesized. What percent yield should the student report? Assume that the aluminum is limiting. Give your answer to four significant figures.
