Answer:

0.723 mol

Step-by-step explanation:

Mole -

Moles is denoted by given mass divided by the molecular mass ,

Hence ,

n = w / m

n = moles ,

w = given mass ,

m = molar mass .

From the information of the question ,

w = 150.0 g

As we known the molar mass of lead is -

m = 207.2 g/mol

Hence , the value for the sample of mole can be calculated by using the above formula ,

n = w / m

putting the respective values ,

n = 150.0 g / 207.2 g/mol = 0.723 mol
