When HgO is heated, it decomposes into elemental mercury and molecular oxygen gas.
a. What is the theoretical mass of Hg obtained from 80.0g of the oxide?
b. If 60.0g of Hg is obtained from 80.0g of the oxide, what is the percent yield of the reaction?

look up molar mass of HgO
a. find mass of Hg in 80 g HgO
b. divide 60.0 g by mass from a.
