Help with gravematic factor balancing.
« on: December 08, 2009, 11:15:13 PM »
The question is.. Calculate the gravimetric factor for C6H6Cl6 ---> AgCl.  Now I know how to do the gravimetric part, but am trying to figure out where to go to make an equation.

I figured out lindane is a carbon ring.  But not sure where to go from there.  Any hints please?

It is just about keeping track of number of moles of chlorine.

Do I need to figure out what to react it with .. or can I just do it from that?  I could quite possible be making this more complicated than it is.

the IUPAC name of lindane is hexachlorocyolohexane which can be manufactured from benzene.

i think you should look at what you intend to precipitate. if it's chloride, then 1 mole of lindane will give 6 moles of chloride ions.
