Yes, to a first approximation..........

Explanation:

$K^{+} {[P b {(O H)}_{3}]}_{3}^{-}$ $K^+[Pb(OH)_3]^-$ is the SALT of potassium ion, $K^{+}$ $K^+$ , and the complex ion, ${[P b {(O H)}_{3}]}_{3}^{-}$ $[Pb(OH)_3]^-$ . I do not know whether this ion has been actually isolated and characterized; ${[P b {(O H)}_{4}]}_{4}^{2 -}$ $[Pb(OH)_4]^(2-)$ is better known. In either case, we could potentially exchange the potassium cation for other cations such as $N a^{+}$ $Na^+$ or $L i^{+}$ $Li^+$ , but probably not for $N H_{4}^{+}$ $NH_4^+$ , why not?
