That is because Alchemy is not based on real research and facts, but rather on magic and occultism. Sure, many things in it have been used as basics for some chemistry, but most is false and incorrect.
Answer:
The mass of PbSO4 formed 15.163 gram
Explanation:
mole of Pb(NO₃)₂ = 1.25 x 0.05 = 0.0625
mole of Na₂SO₄ = 2 x 0.025 = 0.05
Pb(NO₃)₂ + Na₂SO₄ → PbSO₄ + 2 NaNO₃
( Mole/Stoichiometry ) 
= 0.0625 = 0.05
From (Mole/ Stoichiometry ) we can conclude that Na₂SO₄ is limiting reagent.
Mass of PbSO₄ precipitate = 0.05 x Molecular mass of PbSO₄
= 0.05 x 303.26 g
= 15.163 g
The correct answer is a. This is because the pH of a solution is defined as -log10(concentration of H+ ions). An inverse logarithmic scale such as this means that a solution with a lower concentration of H+ ions will have a higher pH than one with a higher concentration. Therefore we know that the pH of the second sample will be higher than the first.
Since the logarithmic scale has the base 10, a change by 1 on the scale is a consequence of multiplication/division of the H+ concentration by a factor of 10. As the scale is inverse, this means that a decrease of concentration by factor 1000 is equivalent to increasing the pH by (1000/10) = 3.
The water from the lake must first evaporate from the liquid state to the gaseous state and then condense in the air to form vapors.
The water molecules absorb energy while evaporating and release it when condensing. Their motion gets faster when they are evaporating and slows back down upon condensation.
