What mass of silver chloride can be produced from 1.20 L of a 0.259 M solution of silver nitrate? answer for first part is 4.45g The reaction described in Part A required 3.00 L of potassium chloride. What is the concentration of this potassium chloride solution?
@Preetha
not 4.45 g it's suppose to be 44.5g
usually when concentration is being asked for you need to convert to Moles/L
^That was of no help....
\[KCl+AgNO _{3}\rightarrow AgCl+KNO _{3}\] Write equation first.
To find the ratio of moles or volume. First find number of moles of the compound with more data that facilitates the calculation. It will be of Silver Nitrate.\[mol=\frac{ Concentration*Volume (cm^3) }{ 1000 }=\frac{ 0.259*1200 }{ 1000 }=0.3108mol\] According to the equation, the ratio of moles of AgNO3 to KCl is 1:1 It means KCl should have the same number of moles of AgNO3, that is 0.3108mol. Re-use the same formula to make concentration the subject. That will be:\[concentration=\frac{ 1000mol }{ Volume(cm^3) }=\frac{ 1000*0.3108 }{ 3000 }=0.1036M\]
