`A" " 5.0 g` sample of felspar containing `Na_(2)O,K_(2)O` and some inert impurity is dissolved in dilute `HCl` solution and `NaCl` and `KCl` formed are separated by fractional crystallization. During crystallization some less soluble impurities also come out. Mass of `NaCl, KCl` and impurity accompanying these salts was found to be `6.47 g`. Solid crystal was then re-dissolved and required `300mL` of `0.3M AgNO_(3)` for complete precipitation of chlorides. The precipitate this, obtained ws found to contain `4.23%` insoluble impurity. Determine mass percentage of `Na_(2)O` and `K_(2)O` in the original sample:

The correct Answer is:
To determine the mass percentage of \( Na_2O \) and \( K_2O \) in the original sample of felspar, we can follow these steps: ### Step 1: Calculate the moles of \( AgNO_3 \) We know that the volume of \( AgNO_3 \) solution used is \( 300 \, mL \) and its molarity is \( 0.3 \, M \). \[ \text{Moles of } AgNO_3 = \text{Molarity} \times \text{Volume (in L)} = 0.3 \, \text{mol/L} \times 0.300 \, \text{L} = 0.09 \, \text{mol} \] ### Step 2: Calculate the mass of \( AgCl \) precipitate The reaction between \( AgNO_3 \) and \( NaCl \) or \( KCl \) produces \( AgCl \). The molar mass of \( AgCl \) is approximately \( 143.5 \, g/mol \). \[ \text{Mass of } AgCl = \text{Moles} \times \text{Molar Mass} = 0.09 \, \text{mol} \times 143.5 \, g/mol = 12.915 \, g \] ### Step 3: Calculate the total mass of the precipitate Given that the precipitate contains \( 4.23\% \) insoluble impurity, we can find the total mass of the precipitate using the mass of \( AgCl \). Let \( x \) be the total mass of the precipitate. The mass of insoluble impurity is \( 0.0423x \). Thus, we can write: \[ x - 0.0423x = 12.915 \implies 0.9577x = 12.915 \implies x = \frac{12.915}{0.9577} \approx 13.485 \, g \] ### Step 4: Calculate the mass of the insoluble impurity The mass of the insoluble impurity is: \[ \text{Mass of impurity} = 0.0423 \times 13.485 \approx 0.57 \, g \] ### Step 5: Calculate the mass of \( NaCl \) and \( KCl \) The total mass of \( NaCl + KCl + \text{impurity} = 6.47 \, g \). Thus, the mass of \( NaCl + KCl \) is: \[ \text{Mass of } NaCl + KCl = 6.47 \, g - 0.57 \, g = 5.9 \, g \] ### Step 6: Calculate the mass of \( NaCl \) and \( KCl \) Assuming the masses of \( NaCl \) and \( KCl \) are \( m_{NaCl} \) and \( m_{KCl} \) respectively, we can set up the following equations: Let \( m_{NaCl} + m_{KCl} = 5.9 \, g \). Using the molar masses: - Molar mass of \( NaCl = 58.5 \, g/mol \) - Molar mass of \( KCl = 74.5 \, g/mol \) We can express the moles of \( NaCl \) and \( KCl \): \[ \text{Moles of } NaCl = \frac{m_{NaCl}}{58.5}, \quad \text{Moles of } KCl = \frac{m_{KCl}}{74.5} \] ### Step 7: Calculate the mass percentages of \( Na_2O \) and \( K_2O \) Using the stoichiometry of the salts: \[ \text{Mass of } Na_2O = \text{Moles of } NaCl \times 61.98 \, g/mol \quad (\text{molar mass of } Na_2O) \] \[ \text{Mass of } K_2O = \text{Moles of } KCl \times 94.2 \, g/mol \quad (\text{molar mass of } K_2O) \] Finally, calculate the mass percentages in the original sample: \[ \text{Mass percentage of } Na_2O = \left( \frac{\text{Mass of } Na_2O}{5.0 \, g} \right) \times 100 \] \[ \text{Mass percentage of } K_2O = \left( \frac{\text{Mass of } K_2O}{5.0 \, g} \right) \times 100 \]

To determine the mass percentage of \( Na_2O \) and \( K_2O \) in the original sample of felspar, we can follow these steps: ### Step 1: Calculate the moles of \( AgNO_3 \) We know that the volume of \( AgNO_3 \) solution used is \( 300 \, mL \) and its molarity is \( 0.3 \, M \). \[ \text{Moles of } AgNO_3 = \text{Molarity} \times \text{Volume (in L)} = 0.3 \, \text{mol/L} \times 0.300 \, \text{L} = 0.09 \, \text{mol} \] ...
