When solid Ni metal is put into an aqueous solution of Pb(NO3)2, solid Pb metal and a solution of Ni(NO3)2 result

Question

. Write the net ionic equation for the reaction

Answer 1

Ni(s) + Pb(NO₃)₂(aq) ===> Ni(NO₃)₂(aq) + Pb(s)

THIS IS A REDOX REACTION - exchange of electrons.

Net Ionic:  Ni(s) + Pb²⁺(aq) ==> Ni²⁺(aq) + Pb(s)
