Material Detail

Your TA gives you an aqueous solution containing an unknown quantity of AgNO 3 (aq) and an unknown quantity of Mg(NO 3 ) 2 (aq). You are asked to determine the molarity of Ag + in the solution. You add HCl(aq) to your unknown to precipitate the silver as AgCl(s), then filter out the precipitate, dry it, weigh it, and calculate the concentration of silver ion. However, your TA tells you that your calculated value of [Ag + (aq)] is lower than the actual value. Which of the following could account for your answer being too low? There may be more than one correct answer.
