a. mass of iron = 69.92 g
b. percent yield = 93%
<h3>Further eplanation </h3>Percent yield is the compare of the amount of product obtained from a reaction with the amount you calculated
General formula:
Percent yield = (Actual yield / theoretical yield )x 100%
An actual yield is the amount of product actually produced by the reaction. A theoretical yield is the amount of product that you calculate from the reaction equation according to the product and reactant coefficients
