Problem: If 38.5 mL of lead(II) nitrate solution reacts completely with excess sodium iodide solution to yield 0.628 g of precipitate, what is the molarity of lead(II) ion in the original solution?
🤓 Based on our data, we think this question is relevant for Professor Bucks' class at UC.
FREE Expert Solution
Lead (II) nitrate (Pb(NO3)2) and sodium iodide (I) will break up into their ions in the solution and will react as shown:
Balanced Reaction:
Pb(NO3)2(aq) + 2 NaI(aq) → PbI2(s) + 2 NaNO3(aq)
