Answer 1

The reaction between copper II chloride and sodium sulfide as well as lead II nitrate and potassium sulfate both produce precipitates.

The solubility of a substance in water is in accordance with the solubility rules.  It is possible that a solid product may be formed when two aqueous solutions are mixed together. That solid product is referred to as a precipitate.

Now, we will consider each reaction individually to decode whether or not a precipitate is possible.

• In the first reaction, we have; CuCl2(aq) + Na2S(aq) ---->CuS(s) + 2NaCl(aq). A precipitate (CuS) is formed.
• In the second reaction, Pb(NO3)2(aq) + 2KNO3(aq) ----> PbSO4(s) + KNO3(aq), a precipitate PbSO4 is formed
• In the third reaction, NH4Br(aq) + NaOH(aq) ----->NH3(g)  + NaBr(aq) + H2O(l), a precipitate is not formed here.
