Hazard Information | Back Directory | [General Description]
LEAD NITRATE(10099-74-8) is a white crystalline solid. The material is soluble in water. LEAD NITRATE(10099-74-8) is noncombustible but LEAD NITRATE(10099-74-8) will accelerate the burning of combustible materials. If large quantities of the material are involved in the fire an explosion may result. Prolonged exposure of the material to fire or heat may result in an explosion. Toxic oxides of nitrogen are produced in fires involving this material. | [Reactivity Profile]
Mixtures of metal/nonmetal nitrates with alkyl esters may explode because of the formation of alkyl nitrates; mixtures of nitrate with phosphorus, tin (II) chloride or other reducing agents may react explosively [Bretherick 1979. p. 108-109]. An explosion of guanidine nitrate demolished an autoclave built to withstand 50 atmospheres, in which LEAD NITRATE was being made from ammonium thiocyanate and lead nitrate [C. Angew. Chem. 49:23. 1936]. | [Air & Water Reactions]
Water soluble. | [Health Hazard]
Early symptoms of lead intoxicatin via inhalation or ingestion are most commonly gastrointestinal disorders, colic, constipation, etc.; weakness, which may go on to paralysis, chiefly of the extensor muscles of the wrists and less often the ankles, is noticeable in the most serious cases. Ingestion of a large amount causes local irritation of the alimentary tract; pain, leg cramps, muscle weakness, paresthesias, depression, coma, and death may follow in 1 or 2 days. Contact with eyes causes irritation. | [Chemical Properties]
Lead nitrate, Pb(NO3)2, sp gr 4.53, forms cubic or monoclinic colorless crystals. Above 205 °C, oxygen and nitrogen dioxide are driven off, and basic lead nitrates are formed. Above 470 °C, lead nitrate is decomposed to lead monoxide and Pb3O4. Lead nitrate is highly soluble in water (56.5 g/100 mL at 20 °C; 127 g/100 mL at 100 °C), soluble in alkalies and ammonia, and fairly soluble in alcohol (8.77 g/ 100 mL of 43% aqueous ethanol at 22 °C). Lead nitrate is readily obtained by dissolving metallic lead, lead monoxide, or lead carbonate in dilute nitric acid. Excess acid prevents the formation of basic nitrates, and the desired lead nitrate can be crystallized by evaporation. | [Chemical Properties]
The lead nitrate appears as a white cubic crystal or monoclinic crystalline powder. It is soluble in water and liquid ammonia, being slightly soluble in the ethanol, being insoluble in concentrated nitric acid (produce protective film); it can react with concentrated hydrochloric acid or concentrated alkali chloride solution to form complex chlorinated lead acid or chlorinated lead acid salt; it has strong oxidizing property and may cause the risk of inducing combustion and explosion if mixed with organic matter, reducing agent and combustible substance such as sulfur and phosphorus or even subject to slightly friction. The dry lead nitrate can be subject to decomposition at around 205 ~223 while a temperature of 100 is enough to trigger the decomposition of wet lead nitrate. Its decomposition can emit toxic nitric oxide gas.
| [Physical properties]
Colorless cubic or monoclinic crystals; refractive index 1.782; density 4.53 g/cm3 at 20°C; decomposes at 470°C; soluble in cold water; very soluble in boiling water 127 g/100 mL at 100°C; also soluble in caustic soda, caustic potash and ammonia solution, and moderately soluble in alcohol. | [Preparation]
Lead nitrate is prepared by dissolving lead metal, lead monoxide or lead carbonate in excess dilute nitric acid followed by evaporation of and/or cooling the solution for crystallization. | [Hazard]
The toxic effects are greater than other lead salts because lead nitrate is more soluble. Moderately toxic by ingestion and other routes of exposure. The compound also is an irritant to eye, skin, and mucous membranes. | [Flammability and Explosibility]
Nonflammable | [Industrial uses]
This is a white to colorless fine crystalline compound, extremely soluble in water (34%
at 20 °C). Commercial production is based on dissolution of lead metal or lead compounds
in nitric acid (36–40% solution). Lead nitrate is considered to be an activator in
mineral processing. Although lead may activate sphalerite, similar to CuSO4, the use of
Pb(NO3)2 is limited to the activation of stibnite during beneficiation of antimony ores.
Lead nitrate is the most widely used chemical in cyanidation of precious metals as an
accelerator. | [Purification Methods]
Precipitate it twice from a hot (60o) concentrated aqueous solution by adding HNO3. The precipitate is sucked dry on a sintered-glass funnel, then transferred to a crystallising dish which is covered by a clock glass and left in an electric oven at 110o for several hours [Beck et al. Trans Faraday Soc 55 331 1959]. After two recrystallisations of ACS grade, no metals above 0.001ppm were detected. |

1. Hydrometallurgy of galena
Weigh 0.4000 grams of galena in a dry 300ml beaker, add 15ml hydrochloric acid and steam at low temperature to evaporate 3~5 ml; add 10ml nitric acid-sulfate mixed acid, continue to heat and remove it until it is nearly dry. After slightly cooling, add 4 ml of sulfuric acid (1: 1) and wash the cup wall with distilled water to about 50ml. Boil for a few minutes, cool with water, add 10 mL of ethanol, let it stand for 1 hour and filter the precipitate using slow filter paper. Further use dilute sulfuric acid solution (2%) to wash for 3 to 4 times and finally wash with distilled water for additional 1 to 2 times. Discard the filtrate and put the precipitate and filter paper together back into the original beaker; add 30 mL acetic acid-sodium acetate buffer solution and boil until the lead sulfate is completely dissolved. After cooled, diluted with distilled water to 100ml; add about 0.1 gram of ascorbic acid, 2 to 3 drops of xylenol orange indicator and titrate with EDTA standard solution to until the solution color changes from pink to bright yellow which is the titration end.
2. take the metal lead as raw material, first make crude lead nitrate; after the hydrolysis of iron; apply lead replacement of copper, and then carry re-crystallization to obtain it.
(1) the production of crude lead nitrate
Lead ingot is first melted to make lead flower; at the case of slight excess amount of lead, it is subject to reaction with 20% to generate lead nitrate solution to until the reaction solution was light yellow. Filter while hot to remove impurities. The precipitation of the crystalline nitrate salt from the solution include precipitation and evaporation, two ways. 1. Salting-out method: Concentrated nitric acid is added under stirring, and lead nitrate is precipitated due to the common-ion effect. 2. Evaporation method: after applying acidification with nitric acid to the grass green color, apply heating and evaporation to the emergence of crystallization film; the lead nitrate crystals is precipitated out upon cooling; the crude lead nitrate is obtained after centrifugal separation.
(2) purification of crude lead nitrate
The main impurities in crude lead nitrate are iron and copper.
1. hydrolysis for iron removal
The impurity iron in the crude lead nitrate is present as an ionic Fe3 +. The pH value of aqueous solution of crude lead nitrate is 1~2; use ammonia to adjust to until the turbid phenomenon doesn’t disappear as more, the pH value at this time is 3~4. The Fe3 + should be completely hydrolyzed to form Fe (OH)3 precipitate to be removed.
2. replacement for copper removal
Carry out the replacement reaction for cooper removal at the condition of around 50℃.At this time, the solubility of the nitrate lead is 44% while the cooper content in the lead nitrate solution is about 0.025%. According to the Nernst equation, the replacement reaction can be carried out spontaneously. However, since the replacement reaction is carried out in nitric acid and lead nitrate solution (pH1) and the new replaced fine copper powder is more active. In order to prevent the re-dissolving of the nascent copper powder, the lead must be kept in excess. After the lead solution is added, slightly heat to maintain 10~15min, and then quickly filter, otherwise it is difficult to achieve the desired results.
(3). direct synthesis method using lead ore
Lead sulfide ore is taken as raw material and subject to reaction with nitric acid under certain conditions to obtain the lead nitrate solution containing Zn2 +, Fe3 +, Cu2 + and other impurities. This solution, through impurity removal, concentration crystallization, can generate lead nitrate. The mother liquor, after adding potassium sulfate solution, can generate PbSO4 precipitation. After the separation of precipitate, the mother liquor is subject to treatment to remove Zn2 +, Fe3 +, Cu2 + and other impurities and can yield potassium nitrate after concentration. Lead sulfate, under the action of the catalyst, can yield metal lead after iron replacement. The lead then went back and dissolved for making lead nitrate. The reaction is as follows:
3PbS + 8HN03 = 3Pb (N03) 2 + 3S + 2N0 + 4H2O
2HNO3 + K2CO3 = 2KNO3 + CO2 + H2O
Fe3 + 30H = Fe (OH) 3 ↓
Pb (NO3) 2 + K2SO4 = PbSO4 ↓ + 2KN03
PbSO4 + Fe = FeSO4 + Pb
3Pb + 8HNO3 = 3Pb (NO3) 2 + 2NO + 4H2O
Cu2 + + 2OH = Cu (OH) 2 ?.
Zn2 + + 2OH-= Zn (OH) 2 ↓
4. Production of lead nitrate with fine ore powder as raw material
Mineral powder can have reaction after coming across acid, the main reaction occurs as follows:
3PbS + 8HN03 = 3Pb (N03) 2 + 3S ↓ + 2N0 ↑ + 4H2O
side reaction:
3ZnS + 8HNO3 = 3Zn (NO3) 2 + 2NO ↑ + 3S ↓ + 4H2O
3CuS + 8HNO3 = 3Cu (NO3) 2 + 2NO? + 3S? + 4H2O
FeS + 4HNO3 = Fe (NO3) 3 + NO + S + 2H2O
3Ag2S + 8HNO3 = 6AgNO3 + 2NO? + 3S? + 4H2O
As can be seen from the above reaction, with the leaching of lead in the ore, a large amount of impurities also enter the solution in the form of nitrate. Addition of certain amount of precipitant to the acid solution can enable the precipitation and further separation of ions such as Cu2 +, Fe3 + and Ag +.

1. Toxicity of lead nitrate on the mung bean seedlings
After cultivation of mung bean seedlings for five days, the half-inhibitory concentration (IC50) of leaf and root of the lead nitrate of mung bean seedlings were 276.33 and 6.47 mg/L, respectively. With the increasing of the concentration of the lead nitrate, the activity of the polyphenol oxidase (PPO) in the mung bean shoots exhibits inhibition-induction effect while the PPO activity in the root exhibits induction-inhibition effect. The activity of catalase (CAT) in leaf and root of mung bean showed induction-inhibition effect; the chlorophyll content in mung bean shoots exhibits inhibitory effect.
2. Toxicity of the lead nitrate on the chromosome of onion root tip
In the dose range, with the increased concentration of the aqueous solution of the lead nitrate and the prolonged treatment time of the toxic staining, the mitotic index of the onion root tip cells decrease gradually, the chromosome aberration rate increases and the micronucleus rate also increases gradually. The mitotic index of onion root tip cells decreased gradually, which may be due to the inhibition of the synthesis of triggering protein required for entry into S phase, leading to delayed cell cycle and further decrease of cell division index. The nuclear rupture may be due to that the lead nitrate destroy the nuclear pore complex protein. Since the chromosome get re-connected after breakage, it undergoes aberrations, duplications, inversions, and translocations, resulting in the chromosomal structural variation and further emergence of the chromosome bridge. The chromosomal adhesion, chromosomal lag and chromosomal asymmetrical segregation may be due to disruption of microtubule assembly by lead nitrate, thus the spindle was interrupted so it can not guide chromosomes. | [Precautions]
This product is toxic with both swallowing and inhalation of its dust being able to causing poisoning. It can be dissolved in water. It should be stored in a cool dry and ventilated place. It should be thoroughly cleaned before and after the loading and unloading, isolated from heating, combustible product, organic and other easily oxidized products. It should be kept away from food and metal powder. Any spilled lead nitrate should be immediately removed and disposed. Upon fire, we can use mist water and sand. A small amount fire of lead nitrate can be washed with plenty of water. For example, when a large number of lead nitrate get fire, nitrate may melt and melt, avoid using water for fire extinguishing to prevent the spray of a large amount of molten lead nitrate. After subjecting to lead nitrate poisoning, we can drink milk upon, protein and trace amount of magnesium sulfate as well as plenty of water upon mild poisoning. | [Solubility in water (g / 100ml)]
