10.0 dm3 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 5.02 g. According to the equation: Pb(NO3)2 + H2S → PbS + 2HNO3 the percentage by volume of hydrogen sulphide in the air is? (Pb = 207, S = 32, GMV at s.t.p = 22.4dm3)
