A sample of lead (II) nitrate dissolved in 173.2 g of water is heated to 50 C, what is the maximum amount of lead (II) nitrate that can be dissolved?
I know that the answer is about 147 g but do not understand how to get this answer.
first we have to find the solubility of lead (ii) nitrate at 50 oC from litrature it has been seen that solubility at 50 oC is 0.45 gram lead nitrate / gram of solution
1 gram solution= 0.45 gram lead nitrate+0.55 gram water
solubility with respect to water = 0.45 gram lead nitrate / (1-0.45) gram water
solubility with respect to water= 0.45 gram lead nitrate/0.55 gram water
solubility with respect to water= 0.818 gram lead nitrate/ gram water
so amount of lead nitrate = (0.818 gram lead nitrate/ gram water )*173.2 gram water
amount of lead nitrate= 141.7 gram
