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 (red), massicot (yellow)
* Lead tetroxide or red lead, Pb

4, minium, which is a lead (II,IV) oxide and may be thought of as lead(II) orthoplumbate(IV) [Pb2+]
2[PbO4−
4], vivid orange crystals
* Lead dioxide (lead(IV) oxide), PbO
2, dark-brown or black powder

Less common lead oxides are:

* Lead sesquioxide, Pb

3, which is a lead (II,IV) oxide as well (lead(II) metaplumbate(IV) [Pb2+][PbO2−
3]), reddish yellow
* Pb
12O
19, monoclinic, dark-brown or black crystals
* The so-called black lead oxide, which is a mixture of PbO and fine-powdered Pb metal and used in the production of lead–acid batteries.
