So I saw this question: If 28.0 grams of Pb(NO3)2 react with 18.0 grams of NaI, what mass of PbI2 can be produced? Pb(NO3)2 + Na

I → PbI2 + NaNO3
I saw an answer that question but I need one part explained. The answer balanced the equation, but I do not know how they did that or why. They added a 2 to both sides and I do not know where it came from or why it made it balanced.

mass of PbI₂ = 27.6606 g

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

Given

Pb(NO₃)₂ + NaI → PbI₂ + NaNO₃

28.0 grams of Pb(NO₃)₂ react with 18.0 grams of NaI

Required

mass of PbI₂

Solution

Balanced equation

Pb(NO₃)₂ + 2NaI → PbI₂ + 2NaNO₃

The principle of a balanced reaction is the number of atoms in the reactants = the number of atoms in the product

mol Pb(NO₃)₂ :

= 28 : 331,2 g/mol

= 0.0845

mol NaI :

= 18 : 149,89 g/mol

= 0.12

Limiting reactant : mol : coefficient

Pb(NO₃)₂ : 0.0845 : 1 = 0.0845

NaI : 0.12 : 2 = 0.06

NaI limiting reactant (smaller ratio)

mol PbI₂ based on NaI

= 1/2 x 0.12 = 0.06

Mass PbI₂ :

= 0.06 x 461,01 g/mol

= 27.6606 g

How many amps are required to produce 75. 8 g of iron metal from a solution of aqueous iron(iii)chloride in 6. 75 hours?
Shalnov [3]

The amount of current required to produce 75. 8 g of iron metal from a solution of aqueous iron (iii)chloride in 6. 75 hours is 168.4A.

The amount of Current required to deposit a metal can be find out by using The Law of Equivalence. It states that the number of gram equivalents of each reactant and product is equal in a given reaction.

It can be found using the formula,

m = Z I t

where, m = mass of metal deposited = 75.8g

            Z = Equivalent mass / 96500 = 18.6 / 96500 = 0.0001

             I is the current passed

              t is the time taken = 75hour = 75 × 60 = 4500s

On subsituting in above formula,

75.8 = E I t / F

⇒ 75.8 = 0.0001 × I × 4500

⇒ I = 168.4 Ampere (A)

Hence, amount of current required to deposit a metal is 168.4A.

Pepsi [2]

Answer:

The K_{m} of a substrate will be "10 μM".

Explanation:

The given values are:

E_{t} = 20 \ nM

[Substract] = 40 \ \mu M

K_{cat}=600 \ s^{-1}

Reaction velocity, Vo=9.6 \ \mu M s^{-1}

As we know,

⇒  Vo=\frac{K_{cat}[E_{t}][S]}{K_{m}+[S]}

On putting the estimated values, we get

⇒  9.6=\frac{600\times 20\times 10^{-3}\times 40}{K_{m}+40}

⇒  K_{m}+40=\frac{600\times 20\times 10^{-3}\times 40}{9.6}

⇒  K_{m}+40=50

On subtracting "40" from both sides, we get

⇒  K_{m}+40-40=50-40

⇒  K_{m}=10 \ \mu M
