1. Observations
Moist Lead(II) ethanoate /Lead (II) nitrate(V) paper turns black.

2. Explanation
When hydrogen sulphide is bubbled in a metallic salt solution, a metallic sulphide is formed.
All sulphides are insoluble black salts except sodium sulphide, potassium sulphide and ammonium sulphides.
Hydrogen sulphide gas blackens moist Lead (II) ethanoate /Lead (II) nitrate(V) paper .
The gas reacts with Pb2+ in the paper to form black Lead(II)sulphide
