Solution

Material used:
Lead $(Pb)$
Dilute Sulfuric acid $(H_{2} {SO}_{4})$ .
Reaction summary:
This reaction can be carried out using a dilute acid with active metal. The salt so formed then passes into the solution and can be obtained by crystallization.
When Lead $(Pb)$ reacts with dilute Sulfuric acid $(H_{2} {SO}_{4})$ , Lead sulfate $({PbSO}_{4})$ will be formed along with the liberation of hydrogen gas $(H_{2})$ .
Balanced chemical reaction
$Pb (s) + H_{2} {SO}_{4} (dil .) \to {PbSO}_{4} (aq) + H_{2} ↑$
Use of Lead sulfate $({PbSO}_{4})$ :
As a paint drier.
Used in automobile battery.
