Pb(NO3)2(aq) + K2SO4(aq) --> PbSO4(s) + 2KNO3(aq)

Total ionic equation: 

Pb 2+ (aq) + 2NO3- (aq) + 2K+ (aq) + SO4 2- (aq) ---------> PbSO4 + 2K+ (aq) + 2NO3- (aq) 

For the net ionic equation cancel out species found on both sides to get: 

Pb 2+ (aq) + SO4 2- (aq) ----------> PbSO4(s) 

Note aqueous species dissolve and are separated into their ions but solid ones do not and simply precipitate out of solution.
