    Predicting products of chemical reactions
    Hi! I need help with predicting the product in this reaction or explain why there is no reaction.

    Pb(CH3CO2)2 (aq) + NaCl (aq)??

    Please help! It is greatly appreciated

    To be honest, I have no idea what the answer is. It can't be single or double replacement because there are too many substances. It can't be combustion. Maybe it could be neutralization. But I don't know if Pb(CH3CO2)2, lead acetate, is acidic or if NaCl is a base.

    That's a start. Thanks. Now, the folks who can help you better than I can will hopefully post when they are online. Just an FYI, we do this for free on our own spare time, so it may take a little bit before you get some help.

    I think I know what is going on, but I don't want to steer you wrong. My chemistry class days are long behind me. LOL
