I.
In each of seven experiments, a different volume of dilute sulfuric acid is added from a burette to
50 em ' of a 0.50 mol dm ' si lver nitrate so lution in a beaker.
In each experiment. the precipitate formed is filte red, washed, dried and we ighed.
The volume of sulfuric acid and the corresponding mass of the precipitate obtained are shown in
Figure I and are to be recorded in Table I .
