Question 7

What is the method for making insoluble salts?

Answer 7

1. 1 spatula of lead nitrate , add water, used deionised water. Shake it to make it all react. Do the same with sodium chloride
2. Pour both in a beaker and stir
3. Put in filter paper into a filter funnel and a conical flask
4. Put the contents into the middle
5. Pour more water onto the paper to make sure all precipitate is collected
6. Rinse the contents your left with soluble sodium nitrate
7. Scrape the lead chloride onto the filter paper and leave to dry.
