Add water to the mixture of lead carbonate and sodium carbonate powder. Filter the mixture, sodium carbonate powder dissolves in water and lead carbonate does not. Lead carbonate will remain as residue while sodium carbonate as filtrate. Heat the filtrate and use glass beads to confirm the formation of crystals of solid carbonate.
