A mixture contained zinc sulfide, ZnS, and lead sulfide, PbS. A sample of the mixture weighing 6.13 g was reacted with an excess of hydrochloric acid. The reactions are
ZnS(s) + 2HCl(aq) ==> ZnCl2(aq) + H2S(g)
PbS(s) + 2HCl(aq) ==> PbCl2(aq) + H2S(g)
If the sample reacted completely and produced 1.048 L of hydrogen sulfide, H2S, at 21C and 742 mmHg, what were the percentages of ZnS and PbS in the mixture. Enter the percentage for ZnS first, then PbS.
