Problem

In an experiment to produce iron(III) chloride, 5.6 g of iron wool was heated in a stream of chlorine gas. 8.13 g of iron(III) chloride, FeCl3\text{FeCl}_3 , were produced. 2Fe(s)+3Cl2(g)→2FeCl3(s)Ar(Fe)=55.85,M(FeCl3)=162.202\text{Fe}(s) + 3\text{Cl}_2(g) \rightarrow 2\text{FeCl}_3(s) \quad A_r(\text{Fe}) = 55.85, M(\text{FeCl}_3) = 162.20 What is the percentage yield?
