Question

pyromorphite · Answer

Pb(NO3)2 + 2KI ---> PbI2↓ + 2KNO3 
 the precipitation reaction

Anonymous · Answer

When lead (II) nitrate is mixed with potassium iodide, a double displacement reaction occurs, producing a yellow precipitate of lead (II) iodide. The reaction can be described by the equation 2KI(aq) + Pb(NO₃)₂(aq) → 2KNO₃(aq) + PbI₂(s). This is an important example of precipitation reactions in chemistry.
