Question

Balance the following chemical equation (if necessary):

H2SO4 (aq) + Pb (OH)4 (s) -----> Pb(SO4)2 (s) + H2O (I)

Answer 1

Answer:

2H2SO4 + Pb(OH)4 → Pb(SO4)2 + 4H2O

Answer 2

$\\ \tt\hookrightarrow 4H_2SO_4+2Pb(OH)_4\longrightarrow 2Pb(SO_4)_2+8H_2O$

On reactant side

• H=16
• SO_4=4
• Pb=2
• O=8

On products side

• H=16
• SO_4=4
• Pb=2
• O=8
