Question

lead carbonate is calcinised

Answer 1

If you ask about it's equation, this is your answer.

Calcination is heating at high temperatures with limited oxygen supply. The chemical formula of lead carbonate is PbCO_{3}PbCO

3

.

Chemical equation representing the calcination of lead carbonate,

PbCO_{3} (s) ---> PbO (s) +CO_{2} (g)PbCO

3

(s)−−−>PbO(s)+CO

2

(g)

Decomposition of lead carbonate takes place when heated to high temperatures in limited air supply. The products of calcination of lead carbonate are lead oxide and carbon dioxide gas.
