Calculate the percent of lead in pb (co3)2

We will take that molar mass of Pb(CO3)2 represents the total mass of all particles in this compound, ie it has value 100%.

M(Pb(CO3)2) = Ar(Pb) + 2xAr(C) + 6xAr(O) = 207.2 + 2x12 + 6x16= 327.2 g/mol

M(Pb) = 207.2 g/mol

From the date above we can set the following ratio:

M(Pb(CO3)2) : M(Pb) = 100% : x

327.2 : 207.2 = 100 :x

x = 63.33% of Pb there is in Pb(Co3)2
