Lead(IV) oxide, commonly known as lead dioxide, is an inorganic compound with the chemical formula PbO 2. It is an oxide where lead is in an oxidation state of +4. [1] It is a dark-brown solid which is insoluble in water. [2] It exists in two crystalline forms.
Lead oxides are a group of inorganic compounds with formulas including lead (Pb) and oxygen (O).. Common lead oxides include: Lead(II) oxide, PbO, litharge (red), massicot (yellow)
Lead(II) oxide, also called lead monoxide, is the inorganic compound with the molecular formula Pb O.PbO occurs in two polymorphs: litharge having a tetragonal crystal structure, and massicot having an orthorhombic crystal structure.
Scrutinyite / ˈ s k r uː t ɪ n i. aɪ t / is a rare oxide mineral and is the alpha crystalline form of lead dioxide (α-PbO 2), plattnerite being the other, beta form. The mineral was first reported in 1988 and its name reflects the scrutiny and efforts required to identify it from a very limited amount of available sample material.
In aqueous solution, lead(II) hydroxide is a somewhat weak base, forming lead(II) ion, Pb 2+, under weakly acidic conditions. This cation hydrolyzes and, under progressively increasing alkaline conditions, it becomes somewhat weak acid, and it forms Pb(OH) +, Pb(OH) 2 (aqueous), Pb(OH) − 3, and other species, including several polynuclear species, e.g., Pb 4 (OH) 4+ 4, Pb 3 (OH) 2+ 4, Pb 6 O ...
Lead(II,IV) oxide, also called red lead or minium, is the inorganic compound with the formula Pb 3 O 4.A bright red or orange solid, it is used as pigment, in the manufacture of batteries, and rustproof primer paints.
Lead(II) acetate is a white crystalline chemical compound with a slightly sweet taste. Its chemical formula is usually expressed as Pb(CH 3 COO) 2 or Pb(OAc) 2, where Ac represents the acetyl group. Like many other lead compounds, it causes lead poisoning. Lead acetate is soluble in water and glycerin.
Chemical nomenclature, replete as it is with compounds with very complex names, is a repository for some names that may be considered unusual. A browse through the Physical Constants of Organic Compounds in the CRC Handbook of Chemistry and Physics (a fundamental resource) will reveal not just the whimsical work of chemists, but the sometimes peculiar compound names that occur as the ...
