In the double displacement reaction between aqueous potassium iodide and aqueous lead nitrate, a yellow precipitate of lead iodide is formed. While performing the activity if lead nitrate is not available, which of the following can be used in place of lead nitrate?
A. Lead sulphate (insoluble)
B. Lead acetate
C. Ammonium nitrate
D. Potassium sulphate
Answer:B

A. Lead sulphate (insoluble) B. Lead acetate C. Ammonium nitrate D. Potassium sulphate
Explanation: For the formation of lead iodide some soluble salt of lead is required like lead acetate which will form lead iodide with potassium acetate.
