of is mixed with of in water: . If the isolated is of the theoretical amount, find its mass in grams to two decimals (Ag = 108, N = 14, O = 16, Na = 23, Cl = 35.5).

Numerical answer type, answer in g, tolerance 0.01.

Answer: 10.56 g

n(AgNO3) = 17.0/170 = 0.10 mol; n(NaCl) = 4.68/58.5 = 0.08 mol, so NaCl is limiting. Theoretical AgCl = 0.080 x 143.5 = 11.48 g. At 92% yield: 10.56 g.
