Lead(II) nitrate

Lead(II) nitrate, Pb(NO₃)₂, is a colorless, water-soluble crystalline salt composed of lead(II) ions and nitrate ions.

Ionic bonding: Electrostatic attraction between oppositely charged ions holds an ionic solid together. Lead(II) and nitrate ions form the salt through electrostatic attraction.
Lead(II) iodide: Lead(II) iodide is a bright-yellow, sparingly soluble ionic compound with formula PbI₂. Mixing its aqueous reagents with iodide ions produces a distinctive yellow precipitate.
Lead(II) acetate: Lead(II) acetate is a water-soluble lead salt containing acetate anions. It shares Pb²⁺ with lead(II) nitrate but has a different anion and uses.
Lead chamber process: The lead chamber process was an industrial method for manufacturing sulfuric acid using nitrogen oxides and lead-lined chambers. Its later stages yielded lead nitrate residues during nitric-acid recovery.
Solubility: Solubility measures how much of a substance dissolves in a specified solvent under defined conditions. Water dissolves lead(II) nitrate, separating its ions into solution.
Lead(II) sulfate: Lead(II) sulfate is a sparingly soluble ionic compound with formula PbSO₄. Sulfate ions precipitate lead from lead(II) nitrate solutions.
Lead(II) chloride: Lead(II) chloride is a lead salt that is only sparingly soluble in cold water. Its lower cold-water solubility contrasts with nitrate's ready dissolution.
Lead pollution: Lead pollution is the release and persistence of lead in air, water, soil, or organisms. Losses of soluble lead salts can contaminate water and soil with lead.
Lead(II) ion: The Pb²⁺ cation is the lead ion in the +2 oxidation state. This cation pairs with nitrate ions in the compound.
Lead(II) oxide: Lead(II) oxide is a lead compound with formula PbO, occurring in yellow and red forms. It is a principal solid product when lead(II) nitrate is heated.
