1.	0.3780 g of an organic compound gave 0.5740 g of silver chloride in Carius estimation. Calculate the percentage of chlorine in the compound.
Answer» SOLUTION :Mass of the COMPOUND `= 0.3780 g` Mass of SILVER chloride `=0.5740 g` PERCENTAGE of CHLORINE `=35.5/143.5xx("Mass of silver chloride")/("Mass of compound")xx100` `=35.5/143.5xx((0.5740 g))/((0.3780 g))xx100=37.57 %`
