2NaI(aq) + Pb(NO3)2(aq) → PbI2(s) + 2NaNO3(aq)
Which of these compounds is the precipitate?
a. NaI
b. Pb(NO3)2
c. PbI2
d. NaNO3
I think it is C. is this wrong?
Nope, you are correct! The precipitate of a solution is the solid that forms when two of them are mixed. PbI2 is the only solid, so it must be the precipitate!
