1.	In the double displacement reaction aqueous potassium iodide and aqueous lead nitrate, a yellow precipitate of lead iodide is formed. While performing th activity if lead nitrate is not available, which of the following can be used in place of lead nitrate ?
Answer» Lead sulphute (insoluble) Lead acetate Ammonium nitrate POTASSIUM sulphate SOLUTION :Lead sulphate being insoluble will not dissociate to GIVE lead ions. Hence PRECIPITATION of lead iodide will not be POSSIBLE with lead sulphate.
