QAIPMT-2008-Ch-2195: NEET 2008 Chemistry - Class 11 AIPMT-2008-Ch-2195 Solution: How many moles of lead (II) chloride will be formed from a…
How many moles of lead (II) chloride will be formed from a reaction between 6.5 g of PbO and 3.2 g HCl?
Multiple Choice Options
- A 0.011
- B 0.029
- C 0.044
- D 0.333
Step-by-Step Verified Solution
PbO | + | 2HCl | _ | PbCl 2 | + | H 2 O
n mol | 2n mol | n mol
6.5 224 mol | 3.2 36.5 mol
0.029 mol | 0.087 mol
Formation of moles of lead(II) chloride depends upon the no. of moles of PbO which acts as a limiting reagent here. So no of moles of PbCl 2 formed will be equal to the no of PbO (i.e 0.029)
