Answer: Mass of [tex]PbSO_{4}[/tex] produced is 99.1 g.

Explanation:

Chemical equation for the given reaction is as follows.

[tex]K_{2}SO_{4}(aq) + Pb(NO_{3})_{2}(aq) \rightarrow 2KNO_{3}(aq) + PbSO_{4}(s)[/tex]

Moles of [tex]Pb(NO_{3})_{2}[/tex] = Molarity × volume

                           = [tex]0.165 M \times 1.98 ml[/tex]

                           = 0.3267 mol

Moles of [tex]K_{2}SO_{4} = 0.702 M \times 3.6 ml[/tex]

                            = 2.527 mol

As moles of [tex]Pb(NO_{3})_{2}[/tex] is less. Hence, it is the limiting reactant.

We know that, molar mass of [tex]PbSO_{4}[/tex] is 303.26 g/mol.

Then,

  0.3267 mol of [tex]PbSO_{4}[/tex] = [tex]0.3267 \times 303.26[/tex]

                        = 99.075 g

or,                    = 99.1 g

Therefore, mass of [tex]PbSO_{4}[/tex] produced is 99.1 g.

The mass of PbSO₄ produced when 1.98 mL of 0.165 M Pb(NO₃)₂ and 3.6 mL of 0.702 M K₂SO₄ are mixed is 0.10 g

We'll begin by calculating the number of mole of Pb(NO₃)₂ and K₂SO₄ in the solution. This is illustrated below:

For Pb(NO₃)₂:

Volume = 1.98 mL = 1.98 / 1000 = 0.00198 L

Molarity = 0.165 M

Mole of Pb(NO₃)₂ =?

Mole = Molarity x Volume

Mole of Pb(NO₃)₂ = 0.165 × 0.00198

Mole of Pb(NO₃)₂ = 0.0003267 mole

For K₂SO₄:

Volume = 3.6 mL = 3.6 / 1000 = 0.0036 L

Molarity = 0.702 M

Mole of K₂SO₄ =?

Mole = Molarity x Volume

Mole of K₂SO₄ = 0.702 × 0.0036

Mole of K₂SO₄ = 0.0025272 mole

Next, we shall determine the limiting reactant. This can be obtained as follow:

               K₂SO₄ + Pb(NO₃)₂ —> PbSO₄ + 2KNO₃

                 1         :       1

0.0025272         :       0.0003267

From the above, we can see that the mole of Pb(NO₃)₂ is less. Thus, Pb(NO₃)₂ is the limit reactant.

Next, we shall determine the number of mole of PbSO₄ produced from the reaction. This can be obtained as follow:

From the balanced equation above,

1 mole of Pb(NO₃)₂ reacted to produce 1 mole of PbSO₄.

Therefore,

0.0003267 mole of Pb(NO₃)₂ will also react to produce 0.0003267 mole of PbSO₄.

Finally, we shall determine the mass of 0.0003267 mole of PbSO₄.

Mole of PbSO₄ =  0.0003267 mole

Molar mass of PbSO₄ = 207 + 32 + (16×4)

= 303 g/mol

Mass of PbSO₄ =?

Mass = mole × molar mass

Mass of PbSO₄ = 0.0003267 × 303

Mass of PbSO₄ = 0.0989901 g

Mass of PbSO₄ ≈ 0.10 g (3 sf)

Thus, the mass of PbSO₄ produced from the reaction is 0.10 g
