Lead Carbonate Precipitation

Pb(NO3)2 + Na2CO3 → PbCO3↓ + 2NaNO3

개요

Lead nitrate reacts with sodium carbonate to form a white precipitate of lead carbonate (Ksp = 7.4 × 10⁻¹⁴). Basic lead carbonate (2PbCO₃·Pb(OH)₂), known as white lead, was the most important white pigment for millennia until its toxicity led to replacement by titanium dioxide.
