One way of obtaining pure sodium carbonate is through the decomposition of the mineral trona, Na3(CO3)(HCO3).2H₂O. 2Na3(CO3)(HCO3)-2H₂O(s) -> 3Na2CO3(s) + CO2(g) + 5H₂O(g) When 1.00 metric ton (1.00 103 kg) of trona is decomposed, 0.650 metric ton of Na2CO3 is recovered. What is the percent yield of this reaction? 72.1% 92.4% 48.1% 65.0% 35.0%
