A Correct answer
Explanation

To precipitate metal ions as sulfides, the stoichiometry is Ag2S and CuS. For 0.1 moles of AgNO3, 0.05 moles of H2S are needed; for 0.1 moles of CuSO4, 0.1 moles of H2S are needed. The ratio of H2S required is 0.05:0.1, which simplifies to 1:2.

B Correct answer
Explanation

If a quantity loses 8%, the remaining amount is 100% - 8% = 92% of the original. This is calculated as 425 - (8% of 425), which is 425 - (425 * 8 / 100).
