Which of the following will occur when a solution of Pb(NO₃)₂(aq) is mixed with a solution of KI(aq) A) A precipitate of KNO₃ will form; Pb²⁺ and I^- are spectator ions. B) No precipitate will form. C) A precipitate of Pb(NO₃)₂ will form; K⁺ and I^- are spectator ions. D) A precipitate of PbI₂ will form; K⁺ and NO₃^- are spectator ions. E) A precipitate of PbI₂ will form; Pb²⁺ and I^- are spectator ions.

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

When a solution of Pb(NO3)2 is mixed with a solution of KI, a precipitate of PbI2 forms due to the low solubility of PbI2 in water. The K+ and NO3- ions remain in solution as spectator ions.
