What is the mass of lead in 452 g PbCl2?
1 answer:
335.664 grams is the mass of lead in 452 grams of PbCl2.
Explanation:
Data given:
mass of lead in PbCl2 = 452 grams
mass of lead =?
atomic mass of PbCl2 = 278.1 grams/mole
atomic mass of Pb = 207.2 grams/mole
atomic mass of chlorine = 35.45 grams/mole
From the chemical formula of PbCl2 it is deduced that 1 mole of lead chloride contains 1 mole of Pb cation and 2 moles of chloride anion
number of moles of PbCl2 provided are:
number of moles =
number of moles = 1.62 moles of PbCl2 is provided
so when 1 mole of PbCl2 contains 1 mole of lead
then 1.62 moles of PbCl2 will have 1.62 moles of lead
mass = atomic mass x number of moles
mass of lead = 1.62 x 207.2
mass of lead = 335.664 grams
335.664 grams of lead is present in a sample of lead chloride having mass of 452 grams.

Atomic Mass will be 23 the new magnesium formed will be its isotope of magnesium.
We know that,
In stable condition
Number of electrons = Number of protons
Atomic number represents number of proton .
So, here number of proton is 12
Therefore, number of electron is 12
We know that -
Atomic mass = number of protons +Number of neutron
So if magnesium loses one neutron i.e. new number of neutron is 11
then its atomic mass changes.
New atomic mass will be
Atomic mass =
Atomic mass = 23
This new element with atomic mass 23 and atomic number 12 is the isotope of magnesium.
