This activity contains 20 questions.

Question 1.

When a solution containing 17.0 g silver nitrate is combined with a solution containing 5.8 g sodium chloride, a reaction (silver nitrate + sodium chloride ---> silver chloride + sodium nitrate) occurs and 14.3 g of solid silver chloride is isolated. If the remaining solution is evaporated, how much sodium nitrate is isolated?
