Aqueous sulfuric acid (H2SO4) reacts with solid sodium hydroxide (NaOH) to produce aqueous sodium sulfate (Na2SO4) and liquid water (H2O). If 2.86 g of sodium sulfate is produced from the reaction of 8.8 g of sulfuric acid and  3.1 g of sodium hydroxide, calculate the percent yield of sodium sulfate.
