On heating 0.2g of an organic compound with a mixture of barium chloride and nitric acid, 0.466 g of barium sulphate was obtained. Calculate the percentage of sulphur

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

Sulphur is precipitated as barium sulphur, , Molecular weight of barium sulphate is 232 232 g of `BaSO_(4)` contains 32g of sulphur , Weight of substance = 0.2 g
weight of barium sulphur = 0.466 g , weight percentage of sulphur = `(0.466 xx 32 xx 100)/(0.2 xx 232) = 32`
