In Carius method 0.2425 g of an organic compounds gave 0.5253 g silver chloride. The percentage of chlorine in the organic compound is

Options

A.$53.58\%$
B.$87.65\%$
C.$37.57\%$
D.$34.79\%$

Solution

Organic compound : 0.2425 gm

AgCl obtained : 0.5253 gm

In Carius method for estimation of halogen amount of AgCl obtained is 0.5253 gm from 0.2425 gm of organic compound.

Hence percentage of Cl .

Percentage of $Cl = \underset{\phantom{143.5\ }}{\overset{\phantom{35.5\ }}{\rightarrow}} \times \frac{0.5253}{0.2425} \times 100$

$$= 53.58\%$$
