This solution is provided in 265 words. It discusses how component ion ratios, known reactants, and colour and precipitate can be used to determine the counterion.
Solution Preview
I must assume you have the mass of the known reactant in the data you have available as well as its identity. The mass of the precipitate is known. Therefore the mass of the unknown in the precipitate is the difference between the mass of the precipitate and the known reactant as all of the known reactant finds itself in the salt. Now this ...
