Q.

What is the mass of the precipitate formed when 50 mL of 16.9% solution of AgNO3 is mixed with 50 mL of 5.8% NaCl solution

(Ag = 107.8, N = 14, O = 16, Na = 23, Cl = 35.5)                                     [2015]

1 3.5 g  
2 7 g  
3 14 g  
4 28 g  

Ans.

16.9% solution of AgNO3 means 16.9 g of AgNO3 in 100 mL of solution =8.45 g of AgNO3 in 50 mL solution.

Similarly, 5.8 g of NaCl in 100 mL solution 2.9 g of NaCl in 50 mL solution.

The reaction can be represented as:

    Mass of AgCl precipitated=0.049×143.5=7.037g
