Question

The tetraethyl lead [Pb(C2H5 )4 ] in a 25.00-mL sample of aviation gasoline was shaken with 15.00mL of 0.02095 M I2 . The reaction is:

 Pb(C2H5 )4 + I2 → Pb(C2H5  )3 I + C2H5I 

After the reaction was complete, the unused I2 was titrated with 6.09mL of 0.03465 M Na2 S2O3.  Calculate the weight (in milligrams) of Pb(C2H5 )4 (MM 323.4) in each liter of the gasoline. 

2S2O3 2- + I2 → 2I- + S4O6 2-

Answer: 2.70 x 103 mg/L gasoline
