Question

13.4 mL of a 0.361 M sodium phosphate solution reacts with 19.6 mL of a 0.153 M lead(II) nitrate solution. What mass of precipitate will form?

Answer 1

you have a double displacement reaction that forms a precipitate, and you also have a limiting reactant problem.

Find the balanced equation for the reaction.

Find the moles of each reactant available.

Find the limiting reactant (the one that runs out first).

Find the mass of product that could be formed by using all of the limiting reactant.
