What is the answer to this question?
Solubility of a substance depends on nature of solute(like dissolves like) and temprature.
The solubility of a solid in liquid depends on the nature of the solute, which is a polar or non polar chemical substance, and the temperature of the solution. Solubility is a very important property of any chemical substance and mainly depends on the physical and chemical properties of the solute as well as the temperature, pressure and the pH of the solvent.
Solubility of lead carbonate (pbco3) is very low and practically non-significative. Pbco3 is nearly insoluble in cold water, 0.00011 g/100 mL at 20 degC, but it is transformed in hot water to the basic carbonate, 2PbCO3*Pb(OH)2.
Lead(II) carbonate finds use as a white pigment and as a stabilizer in plastics. It is also used in the manufacture of anticorrosion paints and outdoor paints.
It is a very toxic substance and can cause severe health problems. Acute poisoning can result in gastrointestinal contractions, jaundice, convulsions and brain damage (Lewis, R.J. 1996).
A crystalline poison, it is almost insoluble in water and insoluble in alcohol and ammonia. It is soluble in acid, but not in alkali or strong oxidizing agents. It is soluble in acetic acid and dilute nitric acid.
