the equation is CaCl2 + 2AgNO3 --> AgCl Ca(NO2)2
my mix is CaCl2 and other stuff that does not react with AgNO3.
0.2918 g of mix gives 0.4462g of AgCl, what is the percent of CaCl2 in the mix?
Molar masses are CaCL2 110.98g/mol and AgCl 143.32 g/mol.
--------------------------------
I am not sure if this is how to do it, however...
moles of the AgCl is 0.4462/143.32 = 0.003113 mol
moles of CaCl2 is 0.4462-0.2918 = 0.1544 grams of CaCl2, then 0.1544/110.98 = 0.001391 mols of CaCl2
i don't know if that's right so far, or where to go from there. i know i need to use the ratios somewhere but ack!
please help.
