PbSO3 is Lead (11) sulfite...
In this case..
if ide then it is a 3
if ite then one higher which is 4
if ate then one lower which is 2
Lead (II) Sulfite
One atom of lead and one of sulfur for a total of two.
There are a total of 118 elements known to exist on the periodic table.
PbS is not an element, it is a compound.Pb is lead and S is sulfur.The name of this compound is commonly known as Lead Sulfide.
The current periodic table contains 118 elements, as of April 2010, but many more may still be discovered.
Lead(II) sulfite is the ionic compound represented by PbSO3.
The ionic compound formed by lead(II) sulfite is PbSO3. Lead(II) ions have a +2 charge, and sulfite ions have a -2 charge. Thus, they combine in a 1:1 ratio to form the compound PbSO3.
Lead (II) Sulfite
The chemical formula for lead sulfite is PbSO3.
The chemical compound Pb(SO4)2 is also called lead(IV)sulfate.
PbSO3 is Lead Sulfite, while the 2 at the beginning denotes the amount of that compound there is. For example, there are two Lead Sulfite atoms. Pb is Lead SO3 is the polyatomic ion known as sulfite
Lead sulfite is a chemical compound with the formula PbSO3. It is a pale yellow solid that is not very soluble in water. Lead sulfite is not commonly encountered, but it is used in some chemical research and laboratory studies.
One atom of lead and one of sulfur for a total of two.
When sulphite reacts with lead acetate, it forms lead sulphite and lead acetate. The balanced chemical equation for this reaction is: Pb(CH3COO)2 + SO3^2- -> PbSO3 + 2CH3COO-
yes No. Inert elements have an outer electron shell which is exactly filled to capacity. Some of the inert elements are helium, neon, argon, and krypton. These are also referred to as "Nobel Gases". Lead is not one of these. The characteristic of these elements being "Inert", is that except under rare or extreme circumstances, they will not bond with other elements. Lead does not fit this characteristic.

Oxygen is in this case -2. There are three oxygens in this problem, so the total is -6. Pb's oxidation number is the same as its ionic charge, which is +2. Everything must equal zero out if you add all the numbers together. +2(Pb)+(Sulfur's oxidation number)-6(Oxygen)= 0 -4+(4)=0 Pb=-2 S=+4 O=-2
No. It is quite difficult for elements to change into new elements.
