Consider the reaction when aqueous solutions of manganese (ii) bromide and lead (ii) nitrate are combined. the net ionic equation for this reaction is:

Formula for Manganese (II) bromide - MnBr₂

Formula for lead (II) nitrate - Pb (NO₃) ₂

a double displacement reaction takes place where the ions are exchanged to form new compounds. The positive ion of one compound forms new compounds with the negative ion of the other compound.

Balanced reaction is as follows

MnBr₂ (aq) + Pb (NO₃) ₂ - - - > Mn (NO₃) ₂ (aq) + PbBr₂ (aq)
