Common additives to drinking water include elemental chlorine, chloride ions, and phosphate ions. Recently, reports of elevated
lead levels in drinking water have been reported in cities with pipes that contain lead, Pb(s). When Cl2(aq) flows through a metal pipe containing Pb(s), some of the lead atoms oxidize, losing two electrons each, and aqueous chloride ions form. (a) Write a balanced, net-ionic equation for the reaction between Pb(s) , and
