For number 1, we had to reduce the lead oxides, then collect the water vapour by condensing it? This is the only way I could think of obtaining the ratio of lead to oxygen atoms :/ Usually, the first question is pretty straightforward. This time Cambridge had some fun it seems

yeah you said it all. you remember the first part of the first question? the number of moles of oxygen atoms needed?

Yes, for PbO it was 1, PbO2 it was 2, Pb3O4 was 4/3 or 1.33 i think. Just had to write the equation, and use oxygen atoms instead of o2 molecules.
How was it overall for you?

i measured the mass before reduction and mass after reduction. This way, you'll be able to get mass of Pb and oxygen. What were your dependent and independent variable?
