It depends on what you call "soluble." All chemicals are soluble in water to some degree. It's just that some are only very, very, slightly soluble in water. Iodine is one of these. For most purposes, you can just call it insoluble.

The quick answer is no. The compound is generally considered to be insoluble but when lead iodide is put into water it will produce small concentrations of lead ions(0.0015 Molar lead ions). This is equivalent to 0.30 grams of lead in about 1 quart of water. So while the compound is considered insoluble, the water will still contain dangerous levels of lead.

Lead (II) phosphate with the formula Pb3(PO4)2 has a very low solubility. For most practical purposes, however, it can be considered insoluble.

Because it is a non-polar compound. Since water is a polar solvent, it dissolves polar compounds much better than non-polar ones.
