Write the balanced net ionic equation for the reaction of aqueous sodium sulfide with aqueous lead(II) nitrate.

Answer 1

Na₂S(aq) + Pb(NO₃)₂(aq) ===> 2NaNO₃(aq) + PbS(s) ... molecular equation

sodium sulfide....lead(II) nitrate .........sodium nitrate.....lead sulfide

2Na⁺(aq) + S^2-(aq) + Pb²⁺(aq) + 2NO₃^-(aq) ==> 2Na⁺(aq) + 2NO₃^-(aq) + PbS(s) ... complete ionic equation

Pb²⁺(aq) + S^2-(aq) ===> PbS(s) ... net ionic equation
