0.40 g of an organic compound gave 0.30 g of silver bromide by carius method. Determine the percentage bromine in the compound.

Answer» Mass of the compound `=0.40 g`
Mass of silver bromide `=0.30 g`
`{:(AgBr,equiv,Br),((108+80)" part",,"80 parts"),(=188 g,,80 g):}`
188g of silver bromide contain bromine `= 80 g`
0.30 g of silver bromide contain bromine `=80/188xx0.30 g`
Percentage of bromine `=("Mass of bromine")/("Mass of compound")xx100=80/188xx0.30/0.40xx100=31.9`
