Answer:
8.82 gm of Pb
Explanation:
Question
calculate the Mass of lead that will be deposited from an aqueous solution of lead(2)salt by the same quantity of electricity that deposit 2.7 g of copper from an aqueous solution of copper (2)saltSince the oxidation# of the Pb and the Cu is the same, we know that the same amount of electricity that will deposit 1 mole of Cu will deposit 1 mole of Pb
2.7 gm of Cu were deposited
the atomic mass of Cu = 63.5
the number of moles of Cu deposited was 2.7/63.5 = 0.0425 moles
so 0.0425 moles of Pb will be deposited.
The atomic mas of Pb is 207.2
0.0425 mole of Pb weigh 0.0425 X 207.2 =
8.82 gm of Pb
