Lead residue can exist in various forms, including dust, particulate matter, fumes, and deposits. These residues can be left behind from processes such as lead-based paint removal, soldering, or firing ranges. Lead residue poses health risks if inhaled, ingested, or absorbed through the skin.
Lead(II) iodide is yellow in colour
Incomplete combustion of carbon-containing compounds, such as hydrocarbons, can lead to the formation of black residue due to the production of elemental carbon (soot). This soot is responsible for the black color seen in the residue.
Lead is a metal in gunshot residue that can be detected by atomic absorption but not neutron activation. This is because atomic absorption spectroscopy relies on the absorption of light by ground-state atoms, which lead exhibits. Neutron activation analysis, on the other hand, requires the irradiation of samples with neutrons to induce radioactivity, which is not applicable to lead.

Lead nitrate on thermal decomposition gives a black residue because it forms lead oxide.
Alkaline cleaners are more effective at removing lead residue compared to acidic cleaners. Alkaline solutions can help solubilize lead compounds for easier removal, while acidic cleaners may react with the lead residue to form insoluble salts that are harder to remove.
The residue obtained when crystals of ferrous sulphate are strongly heated is reddish-brown in color. This residue is a compound called ferric oxide or iron(III) oxide.
