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>

IUPAC name
Lead(II) oxide

Other names
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>

Food deteriorates more slowly in a refrigerator because?

viktelen [127]

Answer:

as temperature increases it speeds up chemical reactions and that accelerates the spoiling process of food. Keeping food in a cold place (a fridge) slows down those processes.

I believe the correct answer from the choices listed above is option D. The modern atomic model is sometimes called the electron cloud or quantum mechanics model. It <span>uses complex shapes of orbitals (sometimes called electron clouds), volumes of space in which there is likely to be an electron. </span>
Hope this answers the question. Have a nice day.

Consider the following data for five hypothetical elements: Q, W, X, Y, and Z. Rank the elements from most reactive to least rea

aleksley [76]

Answer:

Y Q W Z X

Explanations:

The most reactive element is the element that will displace an element from it compound . The most reactive element will replace the less reactive element in it compound.

Q+ + Y Reaction occurs

Since the reaction occurs the element Y which is more reactive displaced element Q from it compound.

Q+W+ Reaction occurs

The reaction occurs, that means element Q replaces element w from it compound. Element Q is therefore more reactive than element W.

W+Z+ Reaction occurs

The reaction also occurs . This is an indication that element W replaces element Z in it compound. This means element W is very reactive than element Z.

X+Z+ No reaction

There is no reaction here. This is an indication that element X is less reactive than element Z. This is why element X can't displace element Y in it compound.
