Treatment of a 10.00\text{ g} sample containing a chloride salt with excess silver nitrate solution produced 8.08\text{ g} of silver chloride. (\text{Ag} = 108, \text{Cl} = 35.5) Which of the following expressions can be used to calculate the percentage of chloride in the sample?

  1. (A)\frac{143.5 \times 8.08}{35.5 \times 10.00} \times 100
  2. (B)\frac{35.5 \times 8.08}{143.5 \times 10.00} \times 100
  3. (C)\frac{35.5 \times 10.00}{143.5 \times 8.08} \times 100
  4. (D)\frac{143.5 \times 10.00}{35.5 \times 8.08} \times 100
