Question
$1.0 \text{ g}$ of a mixture of $NaCl$ and $KCl$ gave $2.0 \text{ g}$ of $AgCl$ with excess $AgNO_3$. Find the percentage of $NaCl$ in the mixture.
Answer: 15.8
π‘ Solution & Explanation
Let $x$ be mass of $NaCl$. $\frac{x}{58.5} + \frac{1-x}{74.5} = \frac{2.0}{143.5} \approx 0.0139$. <br>$0.0171x + 0.0134 - 0.0134x = 0.0139$. <br>$0.0037x = 0.0005 \Rightarrow x \approx 0.158 \text{ g} \Rightarrow 15.8\%$.
