Pb(NO3)2(aq) + 2KCl(aq) > 2KNO3(aq) + PbCl2(s)

3.52 g of PbCl2

3.76 g of KCl

Explanation:

The equation of the reaction is;

Pb(NO3)2(aq) + 2KCl(aq) > 2KNO3(aq) + PbCl2(s)

Number of moles of Pb(NO3)2 =mass/molar mass 5.06g/331.2 g/mol = 0.0153 moles

Number of moles of KCl= mass/ molar mass= 6.03g/74.5513 g/mol= 0.081 moles

Next we obtain the limiting reactant; the limiting reactant yields the least number of moles of products.

For Pb(NO3)2;

1 mole of Pb(NO3)2 yields 1 mole of PbCl2

Therefore 0.0153 moles of Pb(NO3)2 yields 0.0153 moles of PbCl2

For KCl;

2 moles of KCl yields 1 mole of PbCl2

0.081 moles of KCl yields 0.081 moles ×1/2 = 0.041 moles of PbCl2

Therefore Pb(NO3)2 is the limiting reactant.

Theoretical Mass of precipitate obtained = 0.0153 moles of PbCl2 × 278.1 g/mol = 4.25 g of PbCl2

% yield = actual yield/theoretical yield ×100

Actual yield = % yield × theoretical yield /100

Actual yield= 82.9 ×4.25/100

Actual yield = 3.52 g of PbCl2

If 1 mole of Pb(NO3) reacts with 2 moles of KCl

0.0153 moles of Pb(NO3)2 reacts with 0.0153 moles × 2 = 0.0306 moles of KCl

Amount of excess KCl= 0.081 moles - 0.0306 moles = 0.0504 moles of KCl

Mass of excess KCl = 0.0504 moles of KCl × 74.5513 g/mol = 3.76 g of KCl
