First, we write the reaction equation:
NiCO₃ + 2HBr → NiBr₂ + H₂CO₃
Now, writing this in ionic form:
NiCO₃ + 2H⁺ + 2Br⁻ → NiBr₂ + 2H⁺ + CO₃⁻²
(NiCO₃ is insoluble so it does not dissociate in to ions very readily)
Overall equation:
NiCO₃ + 2Br⁻ → NiBr₂ + CO₃⁻²

Answer:
1.3 × 10⁴ mL
Explanation:
A Pb-contaminated water sample contains 0.0012 %Pb by mass, that is, there are 0.0012 g of Pb in 100 g of solution. The mass of the sample that contains 150 mg (0.150 g) of Pb is:
0.150 g Pb × (100 g sample/0.0012 g Pb) = 1.25 × 10⁴ g sample
The density of the sample is 1.0 g/mL. The volume of the sample is:
1.25 × 10⁴ g × (1 mL/1.0 g) = 1.3 × 10⁴ mL
