Solution
Change of colour — In certain chemical reactions a change of colour is seen to be observed. Heat on substances to observe change in colour of reactants and products.
Heat on:
Lead [IV] oxide 2PbO2→2PbO + O2 [g]
Colour change:
Lead [IV] oxide [PbO] – Brown – to Lead monoxide [PbO] – Yellow.
