calculate the percent yield if 1.22 g of copper is produced from 5.60 g of copper(II) sulfate and excess zinc. answer to three sig figs

Zn(s) + CuSO4(aq) --> ZnSO4(aq) + Cu(s)

Expert Solution
Step 1 introduction

Given reaction is 

                                   Zn(s)            +            CuSO4(aq)             -->         ZnSO4(aq)          +        Cu(s) 

as per equation          1mol                         1 mol                                       1 mol                    1 mol 

                                                                    = 159.5 g                                                              63.5 g                                  

as per problem                                               5.60 g                                                                    ?
