Lead (II) nitrate reacts with ammonium carbonate to produce ammonium nitrate
vitfil [10]

Pb(NO₃)₂ + (NH₄)₂CO₃ → PbCO₃ + 2 NH₄NO₃

Explanation:

Reaction of lead (II) nitrate with ammonium carbonate will produce lead (II) carbonate and ammonium nitrate.

The balanced chemical equation is:

Pb(NO₃)₂ + (NH₄)₂CO₃ → PbCO₃ + 2 NH₄NO₃

To balance the chemical equation the number of atoms of each element   entering the reaction have to be equal to the number of atoms of each   element leaving the reaction, in order to conserve the mass.

How many grams does f Cacl2 should be dissolved in 750.0 mL of water to make a 0.100 M solution Cacl2
AVprozaik [17]

Answer:

8.324 g

Explanation:

First we <u>convert 750.0 mL into L</u>:

  • 750.0 mL / 1000 = 0.750 L

Then we <u>calculate the required number of moles of CaCl₂</u>, using the <em>definition of molarity</em>:

  • Molarity = moles / liters
  • Molarity * liters = moles
  • 0.100 M * 0.750 L = 0.075 mol

Finally we <u>convert 0.075 moles of CaCl₂ into grams</u>, using its <em>molar mass</em>:

  • 0.075 mol * 110.98 g/mol = 8.324 g
