Galena (an ore) is partially oxidized by passing air through it at high temperature. After some time, the passage of air is stopped, but the heating is continued in a closed furnace such that the contents undergo self-reduction. The weight (in kg ) of Pb produced per kg of O 2 consumed is ____. (Atomic weights in g mol - 1 : O = 16 , S = 32 , Pb = 207 )
Correct answer
0
Step-by-step solution
mol of Pb = mol of O 2 = 1000 32 m o l mass = moles × molecular mass ∴ Mass of Pb = 1000 32 × 207 g = 207 32 kg = 6 . 47 kg
