CuCl2 + 2NaOH --> Cu(OH)2 + 2NaCl. 100kg of CuCl2 reacts with excess Sodium Hydroxide. 50kg of Sodium Chloride is produced. Calculate the theoretical yield of Sodium Chloride, and hence the percentage yield of Iron in this reaction.

Theoretical Yield of NaCl = 86.7kg (3sf)Percentage Yield of Iron = 57.7% (3sf)
