For the synthesis of boric acid; 7.94 g of anhydrous borax was taken and 15 mL of water was added and the mixture was heated until it dissolved. After the addition of 5 mL of HCl, 5.830 g of crystals were obtained from the mixture which was cooled in an ice bath. What is the percentage yield of the reaction? (Na: 23; B: 11; O: 16; H: 1; Cl: 35.5 g / mol) (d: 1.19g / mL for 37% HCl, dH2O = 1 g / mL)
