You have a solution that either contains Pb(NO3)2 or KNO3. You add a solution of NaCl and observe no change in the solution. Which compound did the original solution contain? Explain your answer

The compound originally contained KNO₃ solution.

Explanation:

When a mixture which contains either Pb(NO₃)₂ or KNO₃ is added with NaCl solution, no reaction takes place. This confirms the presence of KNO₃ in the solution.

The reason behind the above activity can be attributed to the lower placement of Na (sodium) in reactivity charge than potassium (K). Hence, it cannot displace Potassium (K) from the aqueous KNO₃ solution. Whereas the NaCl reacts with Pb(NO₃)₂ to produce white insoluble precipitate of PbCl₂. This confirms the presence of KNO₃ in solution.
