A sample of feldspar weighing 1.500g is decomposed, and eventually there is obtained a mixture of KCl and NaCl weighing 0.1801 g. These chlorides are dissolved in H2O, a 50-mL pipetful of 0.08333 N AGNO3 is added, and the precipitate is filtered off. The filtrate requires 16.47 mL of 0.1000N KCNS, with ferric alum as indicator. Calculate the percentage of K2O in the silicate.
