The reaction of magnesium chloride with silver nitrate gives a precipitate of silver chloride.
MgCl2(aq) + 2AgNO3(aq) + Mg(NO3)2(aq) + 2AgCl(s)

What is the mass of the precipitate formed?
[Molar mass/gmol-': AgCl = 143.4]
A 0.0729
B 0.1439
C 0.287g
D 0.574g

Answer:

Mass = 0.287 g

Explanation:

Given data:

Number of moles of MgClâ‚‚ = 0.001 mol

Mass of precipitate formed (AgCl) = ?

Solution:

Chemical equation:

MgCl₂(aq) + 2AgNO₃(aq)    →       Mg(NO₃)₂(aq) + 2AgCl (s)

now we will compare the moles of MgClâ‚‚ and AgCl.

            MgCl₂           :            AgCl

                1                :             2

           0.001             :       2/1×0.001 = 0.002

Mass of AgCl:

Mass = number of moles × molar mass

Mass = 0.002 mol × 143.4 g/mol

Mass = 0.287 g
