When sodium fusion extract of an organic compound was treated with CHCl$_3$, then violet colour of halogen appears. If 0.15 gm of the organic compound gives 0.12 gm of the silver halide, then find the percentage of halide in the organic compound.
Show Hint
- 43.23%
- 45.55%
- 42.32%
- 44.12%
The Correct Option is A
Solution and Explanation
Step 1: Understanding the formula.
The percentage of halide (I) in the organic compound is calculated using the formula: \[ % \text{ of I} = \frac{\text{Atomic weight of I}}{\text{Molecular weight of AgI}} \times \frac{m}{W} \times 100 \] Where: - Atomic weight of I (Iodine) = 127 - Molecular weight of AgI (Silver iodide) = 235 - m = mass of silver halide formed = 0.12 gm - W = mass of organic compound = 0.15 gm
Step 2: Substituting the values.
Substitute the known values into the formula: \[ % \text{ of I} = \frac{127}{235} \times \frac{0.12}{0.15} \times 100 \]
Step 3: Calculating the percentage.
Now, perform the calculation: \[ % \text{ of I} = \frac{127}{235} \times \frac{0.12}{0.15} \times 100 = 43.23% \]
Step 4: Conclusion.
Thus, the percentage of halide in the organic compound is 43.23%, which corresponds to option (1).
