Solution

The correct option is A X=Pb(NO3)2
Option (A) is correct.
(i) On heating Pb(NO3)2 gave a residue, oxygen and oxide of nitrogen.
Pb(NO3)2PbO+O2+NO2
(ii) Addition of acetic acid and K2Cr2O7 to its aqueous solution give a yellow precipitate.Pb(NO3)2+K2CrO4PbCrO4(yellowppt)+KNO3
(iii) Addition of NaOH to its aqueous solution first forms a white precipitate,which dissolves in the excess of the reagent.
Pb(NO3)2+NaOHPb(OH)2(whiteppt)+NaNO3
Pb(OH)2+NaOHNa2PbO4(solublecomplex)+H2O
