Question
In the double displacement reaction between aqueous potassium iodide .and aqueous lead nitrate, a yellow precipitate of lead iodide is formed. While performing the activity if lead nitrate is not available, which of the following can be used in place of lead nitrate?
Options
Lead sulphate (insoluble)
Lead acetate
Ammonium nitrate
Potassium sulphate
Solution
Lead acetate
Explanation -
Lead sulphate being insoluble in water will not react. However, lead acetate can be used since it is water soluble in nature.
`underset("Lead acetate")(("CH"_3"COO")_2) + "Pb" + 2"KI" -> underset(("yellow ppt.")) ("PbI"_2) + underset ("Pot. acetate")(2"CH"_3"COOK") `
