Question

What is observed when a solution of potassium iodide solution is added to a solution of lead II nitrate? Name the type of reaction. Write a balanced chemical equation to represent the above chemical reaction

Answer 1

KI + Pb(NO3)2 => PbI2+KNO3

Double displacement reaction

It will formed a yellow precipitate of PbI2

Answer 2

Answer:

◆Yellow precipitate of lead iodide is formed. It is precipitation reaction.

◆Pb( NO3)2 (aq) + 2KI (aq) —-> Pbl2 (s) + 2KNO3 (aq)

◆It is also called double displacement reaction.
