Chemical analysis
Samples of two different lead(II) nitrate solutions are used, each sample is reacted with an excess quatity of a potassium iodide solution, producing lead(II) iodide, which has a low solubility and settle4s to the bottom of the beaker. After the contents of the beaker are filtered and dried, the mass of lead(II) iodide is determined. The reference data:
Mass of PbI2 Produced Grams --> Mass of Pb(NO3)2 Reacting
1.39 --> 1.00
2.78 --> 2.00
4.18 --> 3.00
5.57 --> 4.00
6.96 --> 5.00
This reference data relates the mass of Pb(NO3)2 to the mass of PbI2 for the reaction.
