Solution

To find the actual yield, you need to use the formula:

Actual yield = (Percentage yield / 100) * Theoretical yield

Here, the percentage yield is 6.4% and the theoretical yield is 84 g.

So, the actual yield = (6.4 / 100) * 84 = 5.376 g

Therefore, the actual amount of material obtained from the reaction is approximately 5.376 grams.
