The question as text
Silver bromide, AgBr, is made when aqueous silver ethanoate, CH3COOAg, is added to aqueous sodium bromide, NaBr. The equation for the reaction is shown in equation 1. equation 1 CH3COOAg + NaBr CH3COONa + AgBr The method includes the following steps. step 1 Add 200.0 cm3 of 0.0500 mol / dm3 CH3COOAg to a beaker. This volume contains 0.0100 mol of Ag+ ions. step 2 Add 50.0 cm3 of aqueous NaBr. This volume contains 0.0100 mol of Br – ions. A precipitate forms. step 3 Filter the mixture. step 4 Dry the solid residue until all the water is removed. step 5 Record the mass of the dry residue.

4(a)[1]
Ag+(aq) + Br–(aq) → AgBr(s)
4(b)[1]
(silver) nitrate
4(c)[1]
0.01 × 1000 / 50 = 0.2(00) (mol / dm3)
4(d)[1]
