Lead oxide
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, massicot ▪ Lead(II,IV) oxide, Pb3O4, minium,
red lead ▪ Lead dioxide (lead(IV) oxide), PbO2 Less common lead oxides are: ▪ Lead(II,IV) oxide, Pb2O3, lead sesquioxide ▪ Pb12O19 (monoclinic, dark-brown or black crystals) ▪ The so-called
black lead oxide, which is a mixture of PbO and fine-powdered metal Pb and used in the production of lead acid batteries.
