0.99 g of an organic compound containing halogen when heated with fuming nitric acid in the presence of silver nitrate in a carius tube gave 0.287 g of white precipitate. The percentage of halogen in the compound is about 

A

29.6

B

71.7

C

35.4

D

64.2

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B
% age of Chlorine = `(35*5)/(143*5) xx (0*287)/(0*099) xx 100 = 71*7`
