LEAD ACETATE BASIC ANHYDROUS
LEAD ACETATE BASIC ANHYDROUS
Lead acetate is a white crystalline solid, that is prepared by dissolving lead (II) oxide or lead (II) carbonate in concentrate d acetic acid. It is very soluble in water and its solution is often used to prepare other compounds.
The commercial form of lead acetate, lead acetate trihydrate, is used as a mordant in textile printing and dyeing, as a lead coating for metals, as a drier in paints, varnishes, and pigment inks, and as a colorant in hair dyes
It is generally used for dyeing and cloth printing, in the production of other lead compounds and of lead acetate papers.
Is Lead acetate acidic or basic? The base acetate ion is found in both lead acetate and potassium acetate solutions; it is basic since its conjugate acid, acetic acid, is a weak acid.
