Microscale chemistry: precipitation reactions of lead compounds

No comments

Identify which compounds would make good pigments by observing the colour changes of lead nitrate solutions when different anions are added

Many lead compounds are insoluble and some of them are brightly coloured. Observe the colour changes of lead nitrate solutions when different anions are added to identify which compounds would make good pigments.
