A 1.500 gram sample of impure AlCl3 was dissolved in water and treated with 45.32 mL of 0.1000 M AgNO3 using Mohr Method. Determine its purity.
Solution:
If AlCl3 solution is treated with AgNO3, then the chemical reaction is
From the chemical reaction above, the weight of pure AlCl3 is
Therefore, the percent of AlCl3 in a sample is
