Question

take a bad nitrate solution in test tube and add potassium iodide solution to this what is the colour of precipitate write the balanced chemical equation for the reaction write name of chemical equation​

Answer 1

Answer:

Explanation:

Hi there !!

Lead nitrate = Pb[NO]₂

Potassium Iodide = KI

When Lead Nitrate and Potassium Iodide are mixed we get Potassium Nitrate and an insoluble solid [ precipitate ] lead iodide.

Colour of the precipitate formed is Yellow [ Lead Iodide ]

KI + Pb[NO₃]₂ -----> KNO₃ + PbI₂

-----> UNBALANCED EQUATION

2Kl+ Pb[NO₃]₂ -----> 2KNO₃ + PbI₂

----> BALANCED EQUATION

This is an example of double displacement reaction.

Also , as yellow precipitate is formed , this is also an example of precipitation reaction
