Question

When 1.547 g of sodium hydrogen carbonate (baking soda) is heated, it decomposes to 0.561 g of sodium carbonate.

2NaHCO3 (s) → Na2CO3(s) + H2O(g) + CO2(g)

Use the balanced chemical equation and other given information to determine the percent yield of sodium carbonate.

Molar Mass of sodium hydrogen carbonate = 84.01 g/mol

Molar Mass of sodium carbonate = 105.99 g/mol
