Answer:

295.3744 grams of NaBr will produce 244 grams of
NaNO_3.

Step-by-step explanation:


Pb(NO_3)_2(aq)+2 NaBr(aq)\rightarrow PbBr_2(s)+2 NaNO_3(aq)

Moles of sodium nitarte=
(244 g)/(85 g/mol)=2.8705 mol

According to reaction, 2 moles of sodium nitrate is obtained from 2 moles of sodium bromide.

Then 2.8705 mol of sodium nitrate will be obtained from :


(2)/(2)* 2.8705mol=2.8705 mol of sodium nitrate

Mass of 2.8705 moles of sodium nitrate:


2.8705 mol* 102.9 g/mol=295.3744 g

295.3744 grams of NaBr will produce 244 grams of
NaNO_3.
