I : 1 Q n Carius method for estimation of halogens, 180 mg of an organic
compound produced 143.5 mg of AgCl . The percentage composition
of chlorine in the compound is _________ %. (Given : molar mass in
of )
JEE Main 2025 (Online) 22nd January Morning Shift
Ans: 20
Solution:
To find the percentage composition of chlorine in an organic compound using the Carius method, we follow
these steps:
Calculate Millimoles of AgCl:
Since 143.5 mg of AgCl is produced, and the molar mass of AgCl is 143.5 g/mol, the millimoles of AgCl is:
Determine Millimoles of Cl:
In AgCl, there is a 1:1 ratio of Ag to Cl, so the millimoles of Cl are equal to that of AgCl:
Calculate Mass of Cl:
Using the molar mass of Cl (35.5 g/mol), the mass of Cl is:
Compute Percentage by Mass of Cl:
The total mass of the organic compound is 180 mg, so the percentage of chlorine is:
g m o l - 1 A g : 1 0 8 , C l : 3 5 . 5 Millimoles of AgCl = 1 4 3 . 5 mg
1 4 3 . 5 mg/mmol
= 1 mmol
Millimoles of Cl = 1 mmol
Mass of Cl = 3 5 . 5 × 1 0 - 3 g = 3 5 . 5 mg

Millimoles of Cl = 1 mmol
Mass of Cl = 3 5 . 5 × 1 0 - 3 g = 3 5 . 5 mg
Round to the Nearest Integer:
Rounding 19.72% to the nearest integer gives 20%.
Thus, the percentage composition of chlorine in the compound is approximately 20%.
