Determine moles of AgI formed, that is same as number of moles of AgNO3, then divide moles by 0.050 L

Explanation:

AgNO3(aq) + HI(g) --> AgI (s) + HNO3(aq)

1 mole of silver nitrate yields 1 mole of silver iodide
molar mass of Ag I = 234.77g/mol

mole AgI =(2.35g)(1mol234.77g)

molAgI=0.0100mol

there is one mole of Ag in each mole of AgI so there was 0.0100 mol of silver in the original 50.0 mL solution

Molarity is mol/L

Molarity =0.0100mol0.050L

Molarity =0.20M
