The question is incomplete, the complete question is;

Decide whether a chemical reaction happens in either of the following situations. If a reaction does happen, write the chemical equation for it. Be sure your chemical equation is balanced and has physical state symbols. situation chemical reaction? chemical equation A strip of solid lead metal is put into a beaker of 0.043M Fe(NO3)2 solution. yes no A strip of solid iron metal is put into a beaker of 0.044M Pb(NO3)2 solution.

No

Yes

Explanation:

A single replacement reaction occurs when a metal that is higher in the electrochemical series is placed in a solution of the salt of a metal which is lower than it in the electrochemical series.

For instance, when a strip of solid iron metal is put into a beaker of 0.044M Pb(NO3)2 solution, a reaction occurs as follows;

Fe(s) + Pb(NO3)2(aq) > Fe(NO3)2(aq) + Pb(s)

However, when a strip of solid lead metal is put into a beaker of 0.043M Fe(NO3)2 solution no reaction occurs because lead is lower than iron in the electrochemical series hence it can not displace iron from an aqueous solution of its salt.
