Answer:
<h2>Lead(II) oxide</h2>
Explanation:
<h3>Lead(II) oxide, also called lead monoxide, is the inorganic compound with the molecular formula PbO. PbO occurs in two polymorphs: litharge having a tetragonal crystal structure, and massicot having an orthorhombic crystal structure. Modern applications for PbO are mostly in lead-based industrial glass and industrial ceramics, including computer components. It is an amphoteric oxide.[3]</h3>

- Lead monoxide
- Litharge
- Massicot
- Plumbous oxide
- Galena
<h2> Preparation</h2><h3>PbO may be prepared by heating lead metal in air at approximately 600 °C (1,100 °F). At this temperature it is also the end product of oxidation of other oxides of lead in air:[4]</h3><h3>Thermal decomposition of lead(II) nitrate or lead(II) carbonate also results in the formation of PbO:</h3>
<h3>2 Pb(NO</h3><h3>3)</h3><h3>2 → 2 PbO + 4 NO</h3><h3>2 + O</h3><h3>2</h3><h3>PbCO</h3><h3>3 → PbO + CO2</h3><h3>PbO is produced on a large scale as an intermediate product in refining raw lead ores into metallic lead. The usual lead ore is galena (lead(II) sulfide). At a temperature of around 1,000 °C (1,800 °F) the sulfide is converted to the oxide:[5]</h3>
<h3>2 PbS + 3 O</h3><h3>2 → 2 PbO + 2 SO2</h3><h3>Metallic lead is obtained by reducing PbO with carbon monoxide at around 1,200 °C (2,200 °F):[6]</h3>
<h3>PbO + CO → Pb + CO2</h3>

Answer:
Explanation:
see answer below in the attached file.
I think the correct answer would be D. The reaction that involves an acid and a covalent base would be the reaction of sulfuric acid and water or H2SO4 + 2H2O → 2H3O+ + SO42– . The acid would be H2SO4 and the covalent base would be H2O since it is being held by covalent bonds and when in solution it will have equal amounts of OH- and H+ ions.
