Determine the weight percent of chi3 in antiseptic


Iodoform (CHI3) is used in some antiseptic preparations. Iodoform reacts with Ag+ ions to form CO and AgI gas:
CHI3 + 3Ag+ + H2O --> 3AgI(s) +CO(g) + 3H+
Assume that a 1.000 g sample of an antiseptic preparation is treated with the 25.00 mL of 0.02964 M AgNO3 and then excess the Ag+ is titrated with the 3.82 mL of 0.05527 M KSCN to a red FeSCN2+ end point. Determine the weight percent of CHI3(93.7 g/mol) in the antiseptic?
