### Example Problem: Calculating Percent Yield in a Chemical Reaction**Problem Statement:**Aqueous hydrobromic acid (HBr) reacts with solid sodium hydroxide (NaOH) to produce aqueous sodium bromide (NaBr) and liquid water (H₂O). If 8.77 g of water is produced from the reaction of 46.9 g of hydrobromic acid and 42.2 g of sodium hydroxide, calculate the percent yield of water.**Instructions:**Be sure your answer has the correct number of significant digits in it.---**Step-by-Step Solution**:1. **Balanced Chemical Equation**: \[ \text{HBr} (\text{aq}) + \text{NaOH} (\text{s}) \rightarrow \text{NaBr} (\text{aq}) + \text{H}_2\text{O} (\text{l}) \]2. **Identify the Molar Masses**: - HBr: \( \approx 80.91 \, \text{g/mol} \) - NaOH: \( \approx 40.00 \, \text{g/mol} \) - \( \text{H}_2\text{O} \): \( \approx 18.02 \, \text{g/mol} \)3. **Determine the Limiting Reactant**: - Moles of HBr: \( \frac{46.9 \, \text{g}}{80.91 \, \text{g/mol}} \approx 0.579 \, \text{mol} \) - Moles of NaOH: \( \frac{42.2 \, \text{g}}{40.00 \, \text{g/mol}} \approx 1.055 \, \text{mol} \) The limiting reactant is HBr as it has fewer moles compared to NaOH.4. **Calculate Theoretical Yield of \( \text{H}_2\text{O} \)**: The reaction is 1:1, so the moles of \( \text{H}_2\text{O} \) produced will be the same as the moles of HBr used. - Moles of \( \text{H}_2\text{O} \) produced: \( 0.
