Lead carbonate is a neutral compound it contains Pb+2 and CO3-2 ions.
Magnesium carbonate is an ionic compound.
Lead carbonate is an ionic compound, and despite its relative insolubility, it is essentially polar, because it consists of positive and negative ions.
Lead's ionic charge is variable. It is either +2 or +4 depending on the properties of the anions. These charges can also be referred to as "common ionic charge". Example of Pb+2 ionic charge: Lead(II) phosphide Pb+2 and P-3 Pb3P2 Example of Pb+4 ionic charge: Lead(IV) Sulfate Pb+4 and (SO4) -2 Pb2(SO4)4 simplified -> Pb(SO4)2
Ionic
it is ionic ofcoarse .. as ionic is metal (sodium) and a non metal (carbonate) bonding together
It is Lead Carbonate, but to be more specific, it is Lead (II) Carbonate. Lead can have a charge of +2 or +4. A carbonate ion has a charge or -2. So, in order for the chemical formula to be PbCO3 the lead ion must have a charge of +2, hence the (II) between the lead and carbonate.

Magnesium carbonate is an ionic compound.
Calcium carbonate is ionic. CO3 is a poly atomic ion with a charge of 2- and calcium is a metal with a 2+ charge. Because I'd these ionic charges they form ionic bonds

Oxygen has a charge of -2, so the oxidation number of lead is Pb+2
