A) 6.52 g

B) 6.38 g

C) 0.676 g

D) 0.729 g

Solutions

Expert Solution

The equation for the precipitation of PbCl2 by the reaction of NaCl with PbSO4 is

Given, the solubility product of PbCl2 = 1.7*10-5 and Concentration of PbSO4 solution = 1.47*10-3 M, i.e. [Pb2+] = [SO42-] = 1.47*10-3 M

The ionic product product of PbCl2 can be written as [Pb2+][Cl-]2

Condition for the precipitation of PbCl2 from the solution of PbSO4 using NaCl is

[Pb2+][Cl-]2 > Ksp

1.47*10-3 [Cl-]2 > 1.7*10-5

i.e. [Cl-]2 > (1.7*10-5) / (1.47*10-3)

  [Cl-]2 > 1.156*10-2 M

i.e. [Cl-] > 1.075*10-1 M

Molarity of a substance is the no. of moles of that substance present in 1 L of the solution.

Hence, no. of mol of Cl- > 1.075*10-1

no. of moles of a substance = Mass of the substance (g) / molecular mass (g.mol-1) of the substance

So, mass of Cl- > 1.075*10-1*58.5

i.e. mass of Cl- > 6.291 g

In the given options, C (0.676 g) and D (0.729 g) are less than 6.291, whereas A (6.52 g) and B (6.38 g) are greater than 6.291.

Therefore, both A and B options are the possible answers.
