A student synthesized 6.895 g of barium iodate monohydrate,Ba(IO3)2.H20 by adding 30.00 ml of 5.912x10^-1 M barium nitrate Ba(NO3)2 to 50.00ml of 9.004 x10^-1 M sodium iodate,NaIO3.
a) What is the chemical equation for the reaction of barium nitrate and sodium iodate
b) Calculate the percent yield of barium iodate monohydrate the student obtained in the experiment.
