An impure sample of table salt that weighed 0.8421 g and treated with excess AgNO₃ formed 2.044 g of AgCl, has a percentage of NaCl of 98.98%.

Let's consider the reaction between NaCl and AgNO₃ to produce AgCl and NaNO₃.

NaCl + AgNO₃ ⇒ AgCl + NaNO₃

We can calculate the mass of NaCl that produced 2.044 g of AgCl using the following relations.

The molar mass of AgCl is 143.32 g/mol.The molar ratio of AgCl to NaCl is 1:1.The molar mass of NaCl is 58.44 g/mol.

$2.044 g AgCl \times \frac{1molAgCl}{143.32 g AgCl} \times \frac{1molNaCl}{1molAgCl} \times \frac{58.44gNaCl}{1molNaCl} = 0.8335gNaCl$

An impure sample of mass 0.8421 g contains 0.8335 g of NaCl. The percentage of NaCl in the impure sample is:

$\% NaCl = \frac{0.8335g}{0.8421g} \times 100\% = 98.98\%$

99.24%.

Explanation:

NaCl reacted with AgNO₃ as in the balanced equation:

NaCl + AgNO₃ → AgCl(↓) + NaNO₃,

1.0 mol of NaCl reacts with 1.0 mol of AgNO₃ to produce 1.0 mol of AgCl and 1.0 mol of NaNO₃.

We need to calculate the no. of moles of AgCl produced:

no. of moles of AgCl = mass/molar mass = (2.044 g)/(143.32 g/mol) = 0.0143 mol.

Now, we can calculate the no. of moles of NaCl that can precipitated as AgCl (0.0143 mol), these moles represents the no. of moles of pure NaCl in the sample:

using cross multiplication:

1.0 mol of NaCl produce → 1.0 mol of AgCl, from the stichiometry.

∴ 0.0143 mol of NaCl produce → 0.0143 mol of AgCl.

Now, we can get the mass of puree NaCl in the sample:

mass of pure NaCl = (no. of moles of pure NaCl)(molar mass of NaCl) = (0.0143 mol)(58.44 g/mol) = 0.8357 g.

∴ The percentage of NaCl in the impure sample = [(mass of pure NaCl)/(mass of the impure sample)] x 100 = [(0.8357 g)/(0.8421 g)] x 100 = 99.24%.
