Question

A chloride mixture is prepared by grinding together pure BaCl2.2H2O, KCl and NaCl.

A
16.38 mL, 34.18 mL

Solution

The correct option is A 16.38 mL, 34.18 mL
nf for NaCl=1
nf for KCl=1
nf for AgNO3=1
nf for BaCl2.2H2O=2
Maximum amount of AgNO3 will be used when 0.3 g mixture contains only NaCl whereas minimum amount is used when 0.3 g mixture contains only BaCl2.2H2O

According to law of chemical equivalence:
Equivalents of NaCl consumed = Equivalents of AgNO3 consumed.
1×0.358.5=1×0.15×VAgNO3
VAgNO3=34.18 ml

Equivalents of BaCl2.2H2O consumed = Equivalents of AgNO3 consumed.
2×0.3244=1×0.15×VAgNO3
VAgNO3=16.38 ml
