Yellow leaves can mean several different things. If the leaves are heavy and soft the change in color is most likely a symptom of over watering, poor drainage or not enough light. In essence, the roots are not getting enough air and are suffocating. If not dealt with quickly, the roots will start to rot.

If you think this may be the problem you're having, hold off on watering until the soil dries out. Refer to General Care for more details on future watering and lighting.
Check the tag on the individual plant you purchased to see what ideal watering and lighting conditions.
