Question
Ammoniacal nitrogen can be determined by treatment of the sample with chloroplatinic acid; the product is slightly soluble ammonium chloroplatinate:
H2PtCl6 + 2NH4+ = (NH4)2PtCl6 + 2H+
The percipitate decomposes upon ignition, yielding metallic platinum and gaseous products:
(NH4)2PtCl6 = Pt(s) + 2Cl2(g) + 2NH3(g) + 2HCl(g)
What is the percentage of ammonium in a sample of 0.2213g of sample gave rise to 0.5881g of platinum?
