Lead Acetate Formula
Lead is a periodic table element with the atomic number 82. It is a metal that people have utilised for ages, dating back to 7000 BC. The element is found in small quantities in a variety of minerals, with the exception of sulphide and lead glance (PBS), which are used to manufacture the metal across the world. It is a white shiny metal with a soft texture that is very malleable. In addition to being a good conductor of electricity, the metal is very corrosion-resistant. When burned in the air, the metal in powdered form generates a bluish-white blaze.
