Question 1110.0dm3 of air containing H2S as an impurity was passed through a solution of Pb(NO3)2 until all the H2S had reacted. The precipitate of PbS was found to weigh 5.02g. According to the equation,
Pb (NO3)2 + H2S ---> PbS + HNO2 the percentage by volume of hydrogen sulphide.
(Pb = 207, s = 32, GMV at STP = 22.4dm3)
