Magnesium Oxide can be made by heating magnesium metal in the presence of the oxygen. The balanced equation for the reaction is 2Mg(s) + O2(g) -> 2MgO(s). When 10.2 g of Mg is allowed to react with 10.6 g O2, 11.9 g MgO is collected. Determine the theoretical yield for the reaction. Express your answer in grams. Determine the percent yield for the reaction. Express your answer as a percent.
