Both lead and Mercury are metals, physically lead is solid at room temperature, however mercury is a liquid, but chemically they are both metals. Mercury is a classified as a transition metal, however technically isn't as it doesn't not have a partially filled d-orbital in either it elemental state or as one of it's common ions. Lead on the other hand belongs to the group known as the poor metals.
Anything with lead ions and anything with chloride ions. So, for example, lead nitrate and sodium chloride. Getting lead into solution is actually the tricky part here; most lead compounds are not particularly soluble.
Mercury(II) chloride, also known as mercuric chloride or corrosive sublimate, is a highly toxic compound that has been historically used in various applications like disinfectants, fungicides, and pesticides. However, its use has been greatly restricted due to its high toxicity and environmental hazards.
Lead chloride can be separated from a mixture of silver chloride and lead chloride by adding water to the mixture. Silver chloride is insoluble in water, whereas lead chloride is soluble. Upon adding water, the silver chloride will precipitate out, leaving behind the lead chloride in solution.
no, lead (II) chloride is NOT soluble. Therefore, it will remain a solid.----------- I know that lead (II) chloride is soluble in hot water. I did it yesterday. I don't know what happens if its cold water, but PbCl2 is soluble in hot water.PbCl2(s)---heat---> Pb2+(aq)+2Cl-(aq)
One method to separate lead chloride from a mixture of lead chloride and silver chloride is to dissolve the mixture in water, then add hydrochloric acid to precipitate the lead chloride while keeping the silver chloride in solution. The precipitated lead chloride can then be filtered out. Another method is to use selective precipitation by adding a potassium chromate solution, which will form a yellow precipitate with the lead chloride while leaving the silver chloride in solution.
Mercury (II) chloride is soluble, but Mercury (I) (mercurous) chloride is insoluble. The formula of the first compound is HgCl2, and mercurous chloride is Hg2Cl2. Also, lead chloride (PbCl2) and Silver chloride (AgCl) is insoluble. All other chloride solutions are soluble.
Mercury(l) chloride
There are two chlorides of Mercury Mercury I chloride: Hg2Cl2 Mercury II chloride: HgCl2
Lead chloride is composed of one lead (Pb) atom and two chloride (Cl) ions. The chemical formula for lead chloride is PbCl2.
Two mercury atoms present in mercury(II)chloride.
Mercury chloride is a odorless solid.
Mercury(II) Chloride
The formula of mercury chloride is HgCl2.
Mercury will not react with sodium chloride
Mercury chloride is soluble in water.
A white precipitate of mercury(I) chloride is formed when a small amount of tin chloride SnCl2 is put into a solution of mercury(II) chloride (HgCl2); adding more SnCl2 turns this precipitate black as metallic mercury is formed.
Mercury(III) chloride (HgCl3) is not a stable compound. Mercury typically forms compounds with a +1 or +2 oxidation state. The most common mercury chloride compounds are mercury(I) chloride (Hg2Cl2) and mercury(II) chloride (HgCl2).
