Solution

  • When an excess of ammonia is passed through an aqueous solution of lead nitrate, white precipitates will appear which are insoluble in the excess ammonia.
  • When lead nitrate and ammonium hydroxide reacts, a chalky white precipitate of lead hydroxide is obtained along with ammonium nitrate.
  • Lead hydroxide is formed which is insoluble in excess of ammonium hydroxide.

Chemical reaction:

PbNO32(s)+2NH4OH(l)Pb(OH)2(s)+2NH4NO3(s)
