Aqueous hydrobromic acid (HBr) reacts with solid sodium hydroxide (NaOH) to produce aqueous sodium bromide (NaBr) and liquid water (H,O). If 0.299 g of water is produced from the reaction of 1.6g of hydrobromic acid and 1.2 g of sodium hydroxide, calculate the percent yield of water. Be sure your answer has the correct number of significant digits in it.
