What Forms a Precipitate with Lead

Adding a source of aqueous sulphate ions to a solution of lead(II) nitrate results in a white precipitate of lead(II) sulphate. The easiest thing to add is usually dilute sulphuric acid – but any other soluble sulphate would do.

What forms a precipitate with lead nitrate?

Potassium iodide and lead(II) nitrate are combined and undergo a double replacement reaction. Potassium iodide reacts with lead(II) nitrate and produces lead(II) iodide and potassium nitrate. Potassium nitrate is water soluble. … The lead ions and iodide ions will eventually meet to form a yellow precipitate.

What ions will form a precipitate with the lead II cation in solution?

According to the solubility rules, the lead (II) cation will form precipitates with the chloride ion, fluoride ion, and sulfate ion.
