To an aqueous solution containing 1.6000 g sample consisting of a mixture of CaBr2•H2O and inert matter, 52.00 mL of 0.200 M AgNO3 is added. The excess Ag+ requires 4.0 mL of 0.1000 M KSCN for the precipitation of AgSCN. What is the percentages of CaBr2 •H2O and of inert matter in the sample? Please provide a complete solution.
