Sodium hypochlorite is the active ingredient in most household bleach products. One method of preparing this compound is as follows: Cl2(g) + 2N2OH(aq) → NaOCI (aq) + NaCl(aq) + H2O(1) In a certain experiment, 50.0 g chlorine was reacted with 50.0 g sodium hydroxide to yield 37.8 g sodium hypochlorite. (a) Calculate the theoretical yield (b) Calculate the percent yield.
