Question

Choose the correct answer:
Dilute sulphuric acid will produce a white precipitate when added to a solution of:
(a) Copper nitrate
(b) Zinc nitrate
(c) Lead nitrate
(d) Sodium nitrate

Open in App

Solution

Upon addition of lead nitrate solution to dilute H₂SO₄,a white precipitate of lead sulphate is obtained.

Pb(NO₃)₂ + dil. H₂SO₄ → PbSO₄↓ + 2HNO₃

Hence, the correct answer is c.
