Zinc and magnesium react with hydrochloric acid to produce the metal chlorides and hydrogen gas. A 10.0 gram mixture of Zn and Mg is reacted with the stoichiometric quantity of HCL. The reaction mixture is then reacted with 116ml of 3.00 M silver nitrate to produce the maximum possible quantity of silver chloride. With this data, determine the % magnesium in the mixture.
