Step 1
Molarity is defined as:
Molarity (M or mol/L) = Moles of lead (II) oxide/Volume of solution (L)
Molarity = mass of lead (II) oxide/molar mass of lead (II) oxide x volume (L) (1)
-------------------------
Step 2
The molar mass of PbO = 223 g/mol
PbO = lead (ll) oxide
------------------------
Step 3
Data provided:
Molarity = 0.75 M
Mass of PbO = 75 g
------------------------
Step 4
Procedure:
The volume of the solution is cleared from (1):
Volume (L) = mass PbO/(molar mass PbO x Molarity)
Volume (L) = 75 g/(223 g/mol x 0.75 mol/L) = 0.45 L approx.
Answer: Volume = 0.45 L
