In the reaction of lead (II) nitrate and potassium bromide, what will be the net ionic equation? A)NO₃^- + K⁺ → KNO₃ B)NO₃^- + 2 K⁺ → K₂NO₃ C)Pb²⁺ + 2 Br^- → PbBr₂ D)Pb⁺ + Br^- → PbBr

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The net ionic equation for the reaction between lead (II) nitrate and potassium bromide involves the lead (II) ion (Pb^2+) and bromide ions (Br^-) combining to form lead (II) bromide (PbBr2), which is insoluble and precipitates out of the solution. Choices A, B, and D do not correctly represent this reaction.
