Question

Write a balanced chemical equation for the reaction. feso4 and pb(no3)2 express your answer as a chemical equation. identify all of the phases in your answer.

Answer 1

FeSO₄(aq) + Pb(NO₃)₂(aq) → Fe(NO₃)₂(aq) + PbSO₄(s)

Answer 2

Answer: The balanced chemical equation is written above.

Explanation:

Balanced chemical equation is defined as the equation in which total number of individual atoms on the reactant side will be equal to the total number of individual atoms on the product side. These equations follow law of conservation of mass.

When ferrous sulfate reacts with lead (II) nitrate, leads to the production of iron (II) nitrate and lead (II) sulfate.

The chemical equation for the above reaction follows:

$FeSO_4(aq.)+Pb(NO_3)_2(aq.)\rightarrow Fe(NO_3)_2(aq.)+PbSO_4(s)$

By Stoichiometry of the reaction:

1 mole of aqueous solution of ferrous sulfate reacts with 1 mole of aqueous solution of lead (II) nitrate to produce 1 mole of aqueous solution of iron (II) nitrate and 1 mole of solid lead (II) sulfate.

Hence, the balanced chemical equation is written above.
