Solutions of lead(ii) nitrate and potassium iodide were combined in a test tube. write a formula equation for the reaction.

yellow

When you mix solutions of lead (II) nitrate and potassium iodide. The precipitate is yellow in colour and the compound is lead (II) Iodide. Pb (NO3)2(aq) + 2KI(aq) → PbI2(s) + 2KNO3(aq). Yes, it is a double displacement reaction.

Explanation:  The lead nitrate solution contains particles (ions) of lead, and the potassium iodide solution contains particles of iodide. When the solutions mix, the lead particles and iodide particles combine and create two new compounds, a yellow solid called lead iodide and a white solid called potassium nitrate. When a solution of potassium iodide is added to a solution of lead nitrate taken in a test tube, the precipitation of a yellowish solid is observed. This yellowish solid is lead iodide. Potassium nitrate is formed along with lead iodide.  When lead nitrate is mix with potassium iodine, a precipitation reaction occurs and yellow precipitate of lead iodide is formed.

a basic solution is an aqueous solution containing more oh-ions than h+ions. in other words, it is an aqueous solution with a ph greater than 7. basic solutions contain ions, conduct electricity, turn red litmus paper blue, and feel slippery to the touch.
