$Organic compound = 0.2425 gm$

$AgCl obtained = 0.5253 gm$

$In Carius method for estimation of halogen, amount of AgCl obtained is 0.5253 gm from 0.2425 gm of organic compound.$

$Hence percentage of Cl.$

$Percentage of Cl = \frac{35.5}{143.5} \times \frac{0.5253}{0.2425} \times 100$

$= 53.58 %$
