0.16 g of an organic compound was heated in a carius tube and `H_(2)SO_(4)` acid formed was precipitated with `BaCl_(2)`. The mass of `BaSO_(4)` was 0.35 g. Find the percentage of sulphur.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

Weight of organic substance (w) = 0.16 g
Weight of Barium sulphate (x) = 0.35 g
`"Percentage of Sulphur"=(32)/(233) xx (x)/(w) xx 100=(32)/(233) xx (0.35)/(0.16) xx 100=30.04%`
