2.43C: Practical: Prepare a Sample of Pure, Dry Lead (II) Sulfate



PREPARATION OF PURE, DRY LEAD (II) SULFATE CRYSTALS:
s
PREPARATION OF LEAD (II) SULFATE CRYSTALS
Diagram showing Filtration of Mixture to Remove Precipitate

SOLUBLE SALT 1 = Lead (II) Nitrate        SOLUBLE SALT 2 = Potassium Sulfate

METHOD:

  • Lead (II) Nitrate and Potassium Sulfate is dissolved in a beaker of Water and mixed together using a stirring rod
  • Mixture is filtered to remove precipitate from mixture
  • Filtrate is washed with Water to remove traces of Potassium Nitrate Solution
  • Leave in an oven to dry

EQUATION OF REACTION:


Lead (II) Nitrate   +   Potassium Sulfate  →   Lead (II) Sulfate  +   Potassium Nitrate
        
    Pb(NO3)2  (s)                    K2SO4 (s)                          PbSO4 (s)                  KNO3 (s)

    Lead (II) nitrate and potassium sulfate should be aqueous (aq) because all nitrates and potassium salts are soluble

      Correct for anyones reference is
      Pb(NO₃)₂ (aq) + K₂SO₄ (aq) → PbSO₄ (s) + 2KNO₃ (aq)
