A mixture of KBr and NaBr weighing 0.560 gm was treated with aqueous Ag⁺ and all the bromide ion was recovered as 0.970 gm of pure AgBr. The weight of KBr in the sample is
A.[object Object]
B.[object Object]✓ Correct
C.[object Object]
D.[object Object]
Explanation
This question uses stoichiometry and limiting reagent. Write the balanced chemical equation, compute moles of each reactant, identify the limiting reagent, and use stoichiometric ratios (and % yield, if needed) to obtain the answer; this gives option B.
