A mixture of NaCl and NaBr has a mass of 2.07 g and is found to contain 0.73 g of Na. What is the mass of NaBr in the mixture?

Homework Answers

Answer #1

no of mol of Na IN SAMPLE = 0.73/23 = 0.03174 mol

Mass of sample = mass of NaBr + mass of NaCl

         2.07   = n*Mwt of NaBr + n*Mwt of NaCl

         2.07   = (x*103+(0.03174-x)*58.5)

   x = no of mol of NaBr in sample = 0.00479 mol

mass of NaBr in the mixture = 0.00479*103

                            = 0.4934 g

A mixture consisting of only rubidium chloride (RbCl, 120.92 g/mol) and sodium chloride (NaCl, 58.44 g/mol) weighs 1.0333 g. When the mixture is dissolved in water and an excess of silver nitrate is added, all the chloride ions associated with the original mixture are precipitated as insoluble silver chloride (AgCl, 143.32 g/mol). The mass of the silver chloride is found to be 1.6048 g. Calculate the mass percentage of rubidium chloride in the original mixture.
