You dissolve 150.0 grams of a mixture of MgCl₂ and KCI in water, add a solution of excess AgNO3, and precipitate all of the chloride ion as AgCl. After filtration and drying, you find that you have formed 331.0 grams of AgCl. What is the mass in grams of KCl that was in the original 150.0 grams of mixture?

A student working in a lab, needed to add 1.599 g acetone and 3.2 g of benzaldehyde to a Reaction flask. If the student does not have access to a weighing balance, how would they measure out the reactants ? Provide the name of the equipment/glassware and the final amount that was added to the reaction vial.
ABS plastic is a polymer consisting of three monomer units: acrylonitrile (C₃H₃N), butadiene (C₄H₆), and styrene (C₈H₈). A sample of ABS plastic contains 11.9% N by mass. It took 1.56 g of Br₂ to react completely with a 2.00 g sample of ABS plastic. Bromine reacts 1:1 (by moles) with the butadiene units in the polymer and nothing else, so bromination is a method for determining the quantity of butadiene in the polymer. What is the percent by mass of styrene in the polymer?
Consider the following reaction. Na2CO3 + Mg(NO3)2 --> MgCO3 + 2NaNO3 Assuming the reaction goes to completion, when 25 mL of a 0.1 M Na2CO3 solution reacts with 22 mL of a 0.3 M Mg(NO3)2 solution, what is the maximum nuber of grams of MgCO3 that can produce? Which is the limiting reactant in the chemical reaction?
When a solution containing 27.2 g of lead (II) nitrate and a solution containing 35.4 g of potassium iodide are mixed, a yellow precipitate of lead (II) iodide is formed. If 13.6 g of the precipitate formed, what was the percent yield for the reaction? Note: you must write out and balance the equation first.

The mineral iron pyrite (FeS2), typically, has a mass percentage of what is known as fool’s gold of 90-95%. The actual percentage in a sample can be determined using gravimetric analysis. To find the % mass of FeS2 the sulphur in FeS2 is firstly converted to sulphate (SO42-). These sulphate ions (SO42-) is mixed with an excess of barium chloride (BaCl2) to form barium sulphate (BaSO4), according to the following reaction: Ba2+(aq) + SO42- (aq) à BaSO4 (s) When the reaction has gone to completion, the BaSO4 precipitate is collected in a filter paper and carefully washed. The filter paper and its contents are then transferred to a crucible. The crucible and its contents are heated until constant mass is achieved. The data for the analysis of a mineral sample is shown in the table below: Initial Mass of mineral sample 17.5 g Mass of crucible and filter paper 144.60 g Mass of crucible, filter paper and dry BaSO4 196.89 g Molar mass…
