Given sodium carbonate solid ,lead II nitrate solid and water explain how you can obtain a solid sample of lead II carbonate

1 answer

Na2CO3 + Pb(NO3)2 ==> PbCO3 + 2NaNO3
Both Na2CO3 and Pb(NO3)2 are soluble in water. Add water to the two solids, lead(II) carbonate will precipitate, filter, the solid will stay behind in the filter filter, the liquid will go through into the collection jar. Wash the ppt with extra water. let the ppt dry and you have made PbCO3 (lead II carbonate)
