Write the equation for the laboratory preparation of the following salt using sulphuric acid:
Lead sulphate from Lead nitrate.

Open in App

Solution

When Lead nitrate (Pb(NO₃)₂) is treated with sulphuric acid (H₂SO₄), it produces lead sulphate (PbSO₄) and nitric acid (HNO₃).
It is a type of double displacement reaction as the ions of compounds are inter-changed.
The chemical equation :
$Pb {({NO}_{3})}_{2} (aq) + H_{2} {SO}_{4} (aq) \to {PbSO}_{4} (s) + 2 {HNO}_{3} (aq)$
