please put the correct numbers of significant figures

In a certain chemical reaction Compound A combines with Compound B to produce Compound C (and no other
products). Measurements were taken of the amounts of A and B present before and after a reaction that produced some
C:
Compound initial amount final amount
0 g
A
9.5 g
B
6.0 g
3.1 g
Calculate the theoretical yield of C.
x10
Round your answer to the nearest 0.1 g.
Suppose the percent yield of C in this reaction was 59.%. Calculate
the actual amount of C that was isolated at the end of the reaction.
?
Round your answer to the nearest 0.1 g.
