A student ended the experiment with 0.1452g of copper, having started with 0.2343g of CuCl₂.2H₂O. 

Calculate the %yield of copper produced, i.e. the percentage recovery of copper compared to the expected amount.

(Hint: The reagents used are always in excess to the copper species (sodium hydroxide, sulfuric acid, and zinc). Hence, the copper species is always the limiting reagent. This means that the n_Cu=n_CuCl2.2H2O at 100% yield.)

(Hint 2: If the copper produced was not adequately dried before weighing, then we may end up calculating a yield of >100%! Why is this?)
