Making lead(II) sulphate Adding a source of aqueous sulphate ions to a solution of lead(II) nitrate results in a white precipitate of lead(II) sulphate. The easiest thing to add is usually dilute sulphuric acid-but any other soluble sulphate would do.Making lead(II) iodide. If you add colourless potassium iodide solution (or any other source of iodide ions in solution) to a solution of lead(II) nitrate, a bright yellow precipitate of lead(II) iodide is produced.he easiest thing to add is usually dilute sulphuric acid-but any other soluble sulphate would do.

Other upcoming eclipses visible in St. Louis will be a partial lunar eclipse on April 4, 2015 and a total lunar eclipse on Sept. 27 and 28, 2015. The next solar eclipse visible for the St. Louis area will be a total solar eclipse on Aug. 21, 2017.
This will be the first total solar eclipse to touch the United State since 1991 when one occurred in Hawaii, and the first coast-to-coast across the southern U.S. since 1918. The last time a total solar eclipse occurred in the greater St. Louis area was 1442. St. Louisans can expect the next one in 2505. Eclipse-chasers from around the world are expected to converge in St. Louis and the areas beyond as about half of both Kansas City and St. Louis lie within the patch of totality.
