What mass of sodium nitrate would be produced from the complete reaction of 1.00 mol of lead nitrate?
2 NaCl + Pb(NO₃ ) ₂ $\rarr$ 2 NaNO₃ + PbCl₂

Question

What mass of sodium nitrate would be produced from the complete reaction of 1.00 mol of lead nitrate? 2 NaCl + Pb(NO₃ )₂ $\rarr$ 2 NaNO₃ + PbCl₂

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

From the balanced chemical equation, we can see that 1 mol of Pb(NO3)2 reacts with 2 mol of NaCl to produce 2 mol of NaNO3 and 1 mol of PbCl2.

Therefore, 1 mol of Pb(NO3)2 will produce 2 mol of NaNO3.

The molar mass of NaNO3 is 85.0 g/mol.

So, 2 mol of NaNO3 will have a mass of:

2 mol x 85.0 g/mol = 170. g

Thus, the answer is D) 170. g.
