Hi Pallavi,
0.5 g silver salt-------------0.355 g silver--------------0.145g
R(COOAg)2 Ag R(COO-)2
0.355/108----no of moles of Ag
0.355/216----no of moles of R(COO-)2
Mol. Wt. of R(COO-)2 is 0.145/(0.355/216) = 88
Mol. Wt. of R(COOH)2 is 88+2 = 90
0.2 g of Acid------0.2/90= 0.002222 moles
0.002222 moles acid-------- 0.04*2/18 = 0.004444 moles H--------0.195/44 = 0.00444 moles of C
1 mole acid------2 moles H-------2 moles C
(COOH)2 is the Molecular formula of the Organic acid.
