A double replacement reaction occurs between two solutions of lead (1) nitrate and potassium bromide, Write a balanced equation for this reaction-identifying the product that will precipitate, and the product that will remain in solution. Write the balanced equation for this double replacement reaction.
The balanced equation for the reaction between lead (1) nitrate and potassium bromide is:
Pb(NO3)2 + 2KBr -> PbBr2 + 2KNO3
In this reaction, lead (1) nitrate reacts with potassium bromide to form lead (1) bromide, which is insoluble and will precipitate out of solution, and potassium nitrate, which will remain in solution.
