Question

In the estimation of bromine, 0.5 g of an organic compound gave 0.40 g of silver bromide. The percentage of bromine in the given compound is _________% (nearest integer) (Relative atomic masses of Ag and Br are 108u and 80u, respectively).

Accepted Answer

Correct answer: 34. (34) O.C→AgBr 0 5e 0.4s mol of Br = mol of AgBr = 0.41 8 8 %B r=%B r= 0.41 8 8×8 00.5×1 0 0 =34.04%
