When excess aqueous barium chloride is added to 25.0 cm³ of 1.00 mol/dm³ sodium sulfate, a white precipitate of barium sulfate is formed. Na2SO4(aq) + BaCl2(aq) → BaSO4(s) + 2NaCl(aq) The precipitate is filtered off, washed, dried and weighed. 5.36 g barium sulfate is obtained. What is the percentage yield of barium sulfate? [Mr: Na2SO4, 142; BaCl2, 208; BaSO4, 233; NaCl, 58.5]
