3Pb(NO3)2(aq) + 2K3PO4(aq) ==> Pb3(PO4)2(s) + 6KNO3(aq) ... balanced equation
- Formula of solid product is Pb3(PO4)2(s)
- Find the limiting reactant:
0.030 L x 0.200 mol/L = 0.006 moles Pb(NO3)2 (÷3-->0.002)
0.025 L x 0.100 mol/L = 0.0025 moles K3PO4 (÷2-->0.00125)
Limiting reactant is K3PO4
mass Pb3(PO4)2(s) = 0.0025 mol K3PO4 x 1 mol Pb3(PO4)2/2 mol K3PO4 x 812 g/mol = 1.02 g (3 sig figs)
