Find the mass of lead formed by the reduction of 342.5 g of red lead(Pb3O4) in a current of hydrogen.
The correct option is
B
310.5 g
Pb3O4 + 4H2 → 3Pb + 4H2O
(207×3+16×4) 3×207
685 g 621g
685 g of red lead yields 621 g of lead.
1 g of red lead yields 621685 g of lead.
342.5 g of red lead = 621×342.5685
= 310.50 g of lead.
