    When a solution of lead nitrate is poored into a solution of Potassium iodide a yellow precipitate of lead iodide is formed.
    This is golden spangles test.
    Pb(NO3)2 + KI= Pbl2 + KNO3
    The precipitate is Pbl2 (lead iodide) which dissolves at high temperatures and precipitates at lower temperatures .
    Perhaps we might mention that Ksp is temperature dependent, and that colour comes from transfer of electrons from anion to cation

      Chakravarthy Kalyan yeah but your reaction is incorrect:
      Pb2+ (aq) + 2 I- (aq) -> PbI2 (s)
      The rest of the ions stay dissolved, so you cannot say that KNO3 has been formed l, as it did not take part in the reaction. Hope you understand now.

      the lead (II) iodine dissolves not much in water, when heat up the solution, PbI2 dissolved completely, create a colorless solution

      +Tokis Phoenix It's not the Lead, it is Lead(II) Iodide PbI2 that has that SHINY golden colour.
      Full reaction: 2KI + Pb(NO3)2 --> 2KNO3 + PbI2 . PbI2 has really low solubility. The point of heating the solution is to dissolve dust PbI2 formed by the above reaction, so that when we cool down the solution, PbI2 will appear as crystals, makes it SHINY, SHINY ...
