How much silver can be produced from 125g of Ag2S
rosijanka [135]

Answer:

108.9g of Silver can be produced from 125g of Ag2S

Explanation:

The compound Ag2S shows that two atoms of Silver Ag, combined with an atom of Sulphur S to form Ag2S. We can as well say the combination ration of Silver to Sulphur is 2:1

•Now we need to calculate the molecular weight of this compound by summing up the molar masses of each element in the compound.

•Molar mass of Silver Ag= 107.9g/mol

•Molar mass of Sulphur S= 32g/mol

•Molecular weight of Ag2S= (2×107.9g/mol) + 32g/mol

•Molecular weight of Ag2S= 215.8g/mol + 32g/mol= 247.8g/mol

•From our calculations, we know that 215.8g/mol of Ag is present in 247.8g/mol of Ag2S

If 247.8g Ag2S produced 215.8g Ag

125g Ag2S will produce xg Ag

cross multiplying we have

xg= 215.8g × 125g / 247.8g

xg= 26975g/247.8

xg= 108.85g

Therefore, 108.9g of Silver can be produced from 125g of Ag2S
