When Solutions of KCl and Pb(NO₃)₂are Mixed, a Precipitate Forms

When solutions of KCl and Pb(NO₃) ₂are mixed, a precipitate forms. Which of the following is the balanced equation for the double replacement reaction that occurs?

A) KCl(aq) + Pb(NO₃) ₂(aq) → KNO₃(aq) + PbCl₂(s)
B) KNO₃(aq) + PbCl₂(s) → KCl(aq) + Pb(NO₃) ₂(aq)
C) K+(aq) + NO₃-(aq) → KNO₃(aq)
D) 2KCl(aq) + Pb(NO₃) ₂(aq) → 2 KNO₃(aq) + PbCl₂(s)
E) KCl(aq) + Pb(NO₃) ₂(aq) → KNO₃(aq) + PbCl(s)
