**Chemistry Problem: Percent Recovery Calculation**A student prepares aqueous sodium benzoate by adding 3.78 g of solid benzoic acid to 12 mL of 3 M aqueous NaOH solution. The student adds 6 M aqueous HCl to the solution until a precipitate is observed, and the pH of the solution is confirmed to be acidic using pH paper. After cooling the mixture on ice for several minutes, the solid is recovered using vacuum filtration and allowed to dry. If 2.51 g of benzoic acid is obtained after drying, what is the percent recovery?Options:a) 65.8 %b) 66.4 %c) 151 %d) 33.6 %

Percent recovery can be expressed as follows: Percent recovery = Amount of substabce…
