Silver is reacted with excess mercury ii chloride producing


Silver is reacted with excess mercury (II) chloride, producing a solid silver chloride precipitate. If the actual yield of 25.5 g silver chloride represents a 77% yield, how much silver was initially present?

Ag (s) + HgCl2 (aq) ------> AgCl (s) + Hg (l)

I already balanced the equation:

2 Ag + HgCl2 -------> 2 AgCl + Hg
