Lead "Trees" in a Displacement Reaction, zinc in lead nitrate solution.

Summary[edit]

Description
English: This image presents a displacement reaction involving a zinc piece submerged in a lead (II) nitrate (Pb(NO3)2) solution. Zinc displaces the lead within the lead nitrate salt, resulting in zinc nitrate and lead crystal formation. The lead crystals progressively develop from the zinc, generating lead “trees”.

Prior to the reaction, sandpaper was employed to eliminate the zinc oxide layer and augment the surface area, promoting an accelerated reaction. This experiment was done with a 0.1 mol/L solution of lead nitrate. This photo was taken approximately 2 hours after the reaction began. No additional adjustments were made.
