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.
Write the balanced chemical equation for each of the reactions. Include phases. When aqueous sodium hydroxide is added to a solution containing lead(II) nitrate, a solid precipitate forms. Equation: 2NaOH(aq) + Pb(NO3)2(aq) ⇌ Pb(OH)2(s) + 2NaNO3(aq) However, when additional aqueous hydroxide is added, the precipitate redissolves, forming a soluble [Pb(OH)4]2-(aq) complex ion. Equation: Pb(OH)2(s) + 2OH-(aq) ⇌ [Pb(OH)4]2-(aq)
