Frequently Asked Questions
What is the molar mass of Lead(II) nitrate?
The molar mass of Lead(II) nitrate (Pb(NO3)2) is 331.208 g/mol. That is the sum of the standard atomic weights of all 9 atoms in one formula unit: 1 × 207.200 + 6 × 15.999 + 2 × 14.007 = 331.208.
What is the molecular weight of Lead(II) nitrate?
331.208 — the same number as the molar mass, but as a dimensionless ratio rather than in g/mol. The two terms describe the same arithmetic, so a molecular weight of 331.21 and a molar mass of 331.21 g/mol are the same answer.
How many moles are in 100 g of Lead(II) nitrate?
100 ÷ 331.208 = 0.3019 mol. To convert any mass to moles, divide by the molar mass; to go the other way, multiply.
What is the percent composition of Lead(II) nitrate?
By mass, Lead(II) nitrate is 62.56% lead, 28.98% oxygen, 8.46% nitrogen. Each element's share is its total mass in the formula divided by 331.208.
How many atoms are in one formula unit of Lead(II) nitrate?
9: 1 lead, 6 oxygen, 2 nitrogen. One mole contains 6.02214076 × 10²³ formula units, so a mole of Lead(II) nitrate contains 9 × 6.022 × 10²³ atoms in total.
