What is the name of the compound formed when lithium bromide reacts with lead(II) acetate?
A
Lithium lead bromide
B
Lithium acetate
C
Lead(IV) bromide
D
Lead(II) bromide
Verified step by step guidance1
Identify the reactants: Lithium bromide (LiBr) and lead(II) acetate (Pb(C2H3O2)2).
Determine the ions present in each compound: LiBr dissociates into Li⁺ and Br⁻ ions, while Pb(C2H3O2)2 dissociates into Pb²⁺ and C2H3O2⁻ ions.
Predict the products of the reaction by swapping the anions between the cations: Lead(II) bromide (PbBr2) and lithium acetate (LiC2H3O2).
Write the balanced chemical equation for the reaction: LiBr + Pb(C2H3O2)2 → PbBr2 + LiC2H3O2.
Identify the name of the compound formed with lead and bromide ions: Lead(II) bromide.
