1.38 moles of oxygen
Step-by-step explanation:
Thermal decomposition of Lead (II) nitrate is shown by the balanced equation below;
2Pb(NO₃)₂ → 2PbO + 4NO₂ + O₂
The mole ration of Lead (II) nitrate to oxygen is 2: 1
Therefore 2.76 moles of Lead (II) nitrate will lead to production of? moles of oxygen;
2: 1
2.76: x
Cross-multiply;
2x = 2.76 * 1
x = 2.76 / 2
x = 1.38
