Write a balanced equation for the reaction of solid lead(II) sulfide with aqueous hydrobromic acid to form solid lead(II)bromide and dihydrogen monosulfide gas.
Solution:
If the question says solid, we need to write (s) next to the compound, liquid means (l), gaseous means (g) and aqueous means (aq).
The equation is: PbS(s) + HBr(aq) —> PbBr2(s)+ H2S(g)
Now lets balance it : PbS(s) + 2HBr(aq) —> PbBr2(s)+ H2S(g)
