Answer:

Name of compound:Lead (IV) Sulfate

Molar mass:399 gmol-1

Step-by-step explanation:

Note the relative atomic masses of the elements involved

Pb= 207, S=32, O=16

Hence Pb(SO4)2= 207 + 2[ 32+4(16)]= 207 + 192=399 gmol-1

The sum of the atomic masses of each atom present in a compound gives the molar mass (mass of one mole) of the compound as shown above.

Pb(SO₄)₂:

A. The answer is Lead(IV) Sulfate.

That is the name of Pb(SO₄)₂ is Lead(IV) Sulfate.

B.

mass of lead = 207.2 g

mass of sulfur = 2 × 32.065 g = 64.13 g

mass of oxygen = 8 × 16 = 128 g

total mass of Pb(SO₄)₂ = (207.2 + 64.13 + 128 )

= 399.33 g

molar mass of Pb(SO₄)₂=399.33 g/mol
