The chemical formula in question is that of Lead (2+) Diacetate by IUPAC and ACD naming standards. Lead(II) Acetate [Pb(C2H3O2)2] is a poisonous, white, water soluble crystal that has uses in hair dyes, varnishes and dyeing of cotton. Lead acetate , a sweet tasting salt commonly known as sugar of lead, consists of polar covalent bonds within each acetate group - CH3COO, as well as ionic bonds between the lead and the two acetate groups.
