When a solution of potassium iodide is mixed with a solution of
lead nitrate, a bright yellow solid precipitate forms.
Calculate the mass of the solid produced (molar mass = 461 g/mol)
when starting with a solution containing 163.20 g
of potassium iodide (molar mass = 166 g/mol), assuming that the
reaction goes to completion.
Give your answer to three significant figures.
2KI (aq) + Pb(NO3)2 (aq) → PbI2
(s) + 2KNO3 (l)
