oxidation
Yes, Pb2+ (lead ions) can react with oxygen to form lead oxide (PbO) or other lead compounds depending on the conditions.
Lead (IV) ion
Formula: Pb2+
The symbol for the lead ion with a charge of +2 is Pb2+.
Lead can exist in several different ionic forms depending on the conditions. The most common ionic form of lead is Pb2+, which is the most stable oxidation state of lead. Lead can also exist in other oxidation states such as Pb4+ and Pb+.
Pb2+ is more stable than Pb4+ because the 6s and 6p orbitals in Pb have poor shielding ability, making it energetically unfavorable for Pb to lose 4 electrons and achieve the 4+ oxidation state. The higher charge of Pb4+ leads to greater electron-electron repulsions, making it less stable than Pb2+.
Pb2+ has lost two electrons, so it has 82 - 2 = 80 electrons.
The Pb K-egde Xanes data reveals that Pb is in a mixed valence state of Pb4+ and Pb2+. However in literature Pb is claimed to be in Pb2+ state. The Pb 6s2 electrons hybridize with the O 2p electrons to form strong covalent bonding which results in the relative displacement of Pb cage with respect to the O-octahedron. This results in increase ferroelectric properties of PbTiO3.However the question is that in the covalent state of the Pb2+ will it appear as Pb4+ state in the Pb K-edge? The reason argued here is that the Pb will lose the 6s2 electrons to form the bond and hence appear to be Pb4+. Hence the argument placed by this pool of thought is from the EXAFS data what appears to be Pb4+ is actually the covalently bonded Pb2+ while what appears to be Pb2+ is actually the ionic type Pb2+.What is the oxidation state of Pb and Ti in PbTiO3 ?
The oxidation state 4+ is not stable in PbCl4; the reaction is:Pb4+ + 2 e---------Pb2+

It is very slightly soluble in water.In a saturated solution:[Pb2+] = 1.2x10-2 mol/L[Br-] = 2.4x10-2 mol/Lbecause [Pb2+]*[Br-]2 = Ks = 6.3*10-6 and [Br-] = 2*[Pb2+]
It is the log mean value of the inert B in counterdiffusion usually used to find a flux. P = pA1 + pB1 = pA2 + pB2 thus, pB1 = P - pA1, and pB2 = P - pA2, so: pBM = [pB2 - pB1]/ln(pB2/pB1) = [pA1 - pA2]/ln[(P-pA2)/(P-pA1)] happy engineering :)
