Article
Lead(IV) oxide, commonly known as lead dioxide, is an inorganic compound with the chemical formula PbO2. It is an oxide where lead is in an oxidation state of +4. It is a dark-brown or black solid which is insoluble in water and slightly soluble in concentrated nitric and sulfuric acids. It exists in two crystalline forms. It has several important applications in electrochemistry, in particular as the positive plate of lead acid batteries and as a relatively inexpensive anode in electrolysis reactions.
