Answer:
Double displacement reaction
Explanation:
The chemical reaction is as follows :
NaCl + Pb(NO3)2 → PbCl + NaNO3.
Balanced equation:
Pb(NO3)2 + 2NaCl → PbCl2 + 2NaNO3
The reaction is a double displacement reaction . A double displacement reaction is a chemical reaction between compound where the cations and the anions of the 2 reactants exchange places to form a new product.
Double displacement reaction, the 2 reactants exchange ions to form new compounds. Double displacement reaction usually produce a solid precipitate. A good illustration of a double displacement reaction is
AB + CD → AD + CB.
From the reaction above the Sodium ion replace lead to from sodium nitrate while lead replace sodium to form the precipitate lead chloride. The anions(negatively charged ions) also exchange position.
