Question

Write and balance molecular equations for the following reactions between aqueous solutions. You will need to decide on the formulas and phases of the products in each of the cases. An aqueous solution of lead(II) nitrate is mixed with an aqueous solution of sodium iodide

Answer 1

This is the balanced equation:

Pb(NO₃)₂ (aq) + 2NaI (aq) → 2NaNO₃ (aq) + PbI₂ (s) ↓

Step-by-step explanation:

This are the reactants:

PbNO₃

NaI

Iodide can react to Pb²⁺ to make a solid compound.
