Final answer:

To determine the grams of silver nitrate chromate precipitated, calculate the moles of silver nitrate and potassium chromate reacted. Then use stoichiometry and molar mass to find the grams precipitated.

Step-by-step explanation:

To determine the grams of silver nitrate chromate precipitated, we need to calculate the number of moles of silver nitrate and potassium chromate reacted. From the balanced chemical equation, it can be seen that 2 moles of silver nitrate react with 1 mole of potassium chromate to form 1 mole of silver nitrate chromate. Given the molarity and volume of each solution, we can calculate the number of moles of silver nitrate and potassium chromate using the formula:

moles = molarity x volume (in liters)

With the moles of silver nitrate and potassium chromate known, we can use the stoichiometry of the reaction to determine the ratio of moles of silver nitrate chromate produced. Finally, using the molar mass of silver nitrate chromate, we can calculate the grams precipitated using the formula:

grams = moles x molar mass
