Magnesium oxide can be made by heating magnesium metal in the presence of the oxygen. The balanced equation for the reaction is 2 Mg(s) + O2(g)→ 2 MgO(s) Now consider that you react 10.0 g Mg with 6.00 g O2 gas. If you were able to collect 12.56 g of MgO, what would be your percent yield for the reaction? Enter a numerical answer only, in terms of percent but do not include the "%".
