Gaseous ethane (CH3CH3) reacts with gaseous oxygen gas (O₂)

Gaseous ethane (CH3CH3) reacts with gaseous oxygen gas (O₂) to produce gaseous carbon dioxide (CO₂) and gaseous water (H₂O). If 0.408 g of water is produced from the reaction of 0.60 g of ethane and 1.3 g of oxygen gas, calculate the percent yield of water. Round your answer to 2 significant figures.
