The theoretical yield is 204.4 g while the percent yield is 2.57%.
<h3>What is theoretical yield?</h3>
Theoretical yield is the amount of product obtained based on the stoichiometry of the reaction.
S8(s) + 8 Na2SO3(aq) + 40 H2O(l) --->8 Na2S2O3·5 H2O(s)
Number of moles of sulfur = 3.25 g /8(32) = 0.013 moles
Number of moles of sodium sulfite = 13.1 g/126 g/mol = 0.103 moles
Since 1 moles of sulfur reacts with 8 moles of sodium sulfite
0.013 moles reacts with 0.013 moles × 8 moles /1 mole = 0.104 moles
There is not enough sodium sulfite hence it is the limiting reactant.
1 mole of sodium sulfite yields 8 moles of product
0.103 moles of sodium sulfite yields 0.103 moles × 8 moles /1 mole = 0.824 moles
Mass of product = 0.824 moles × 248 g/mol = 204.4 g
percent yield = 5.26 g /204.4 g × 100/1
= 2.57%

Answer:
The pH of a solution of 0.00278 M of HClO₄ is 2.56
Explanation:
pH is a measure of acidity or alkalinity that indicates the amount of hydrogen ions present in a solution or substance and is calculated as:
pH= - log [H⁺]= - log [H₃O⁺]
On the other hand
, a Strong Acid is that acid that in an aqueous solution dissociates completely. In other words, a strong acid completely dissociates into hydrogen ions and anions in solution.
HClO₄ is a strong acid, so in aqueous solution it will be totally dissociated. Then, the concentration of protons is equal to the initial concentration of acid and the pH will be calculated:
pH= - log 0.00278
pH= 2.56
<u><em>The pH of a solution of 0.00278 M of HClO₄ is 2.56</em></u>
Natural abundance of oxygen I think
