The alloy brass contains lead as an impurity in the form of lead sulphate (PbSO,). By dissolving brass in nitric acid, lead sulphate is precipitated. A sample of brass weighing 5.0 g is dissolved in nitric acid and 0.03 g of precipitate is formed. Calculate the percentage of lead present in the brass sample.
