A 50.0 mL unknown aqueous sample was tested in the laboratory. The unknown sample was identified
to be lead (II) ions by a precipitation reaction with sodium iodide. Since the unknown was identified to
have lead (II) ions in it, a student added excess sodium chloride (NaCl) to the 50.0 mL sample. A white
precipitate was made and was subsequently filtered, washed, and dried to completion. The precipitate
was measured to have a mass of 2.350 grams.
