Solution
The correct option is A170 g Reaction: NaCl+AgNO3→AgCl+NaNO3
1 mole of sodium chloride reacts with 1 mole of silver nitrate to form 1 mole of silver chloride and one mole of silver nitrate. 58.5 g of sodium chloride reacts with 170 g of silver nitrate to form 143.5 g of silver chloride and 85 g of sodium nitrate.
