When sodium hydroxide is added to a solution containing lead(II) nitrate, a solid precipitate forms. However, when additional sodium hydroxide is added, the precipitate redissolves, forming a soluble $\left[\mathrm{Pb}(\mathrm{OH})_{4}\right]^{2-}(a q)$ complex ion. Write the balanced chemical equation for each of these reactions.
a) Sodium-ion (Na+) and Calcium ion (Ca2+) produce nearly the same color in a flame test (yellow and yellow-orange, respectively). Describe a way to differentiate between the two using a solution of Na2CO3 and write the correct balanced equations. (Hint: Recall the solubility rules of Na+ ion.) b) A saturated solution of an unknown solid reacted with AgNO3 to give a pale yellow precipitate and also reacted with Pb(NO3)2 to give a white precipitate. Based on only these two results, you can conclude that the unknown solid contains which anion? Write the correct balanced equations for the reaction of the anion with each of these reagents.
