You mix 55 mL of 1.00 M silver nitrate with 25 mL of 0.84 M sodium chloride.What mass of silver chloride should you form?

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The balanced chemical equation is:AgNO3 + NaCl → AgCl + NaNO3The mole ratio between AgNO3 and AgCl is 1:1. Therefore, the number of moles of AgCl formed is equal to the number of moles of AgNO3 used.The number of moles of AgNO3 used is:55 mL * 1.00 M = 0.055 molTherefore, the number of moles of AgCl formed is also 0.055 mol.The molar mass of AgCl is 143.32 g/mol. Therefore, the mass of AgCl formed is:0.055 mol * 143.32 g/mol = 7.88 gTherefore, the correct answer is A) 3.0 g.
