An interhalogen compound is a molecule which contains two or more different halogen atoms and no atoms of elements from any other group. Most interhalogen compounds known are binary. Their formulae are generally XYₙ, where n = 1, 3, 5 or 7, and X is the less electronegative of the two halogens.
2 Pb3O4 → 6 PbO + O. ... In addition, Pb2O3 can be obtained by decomposing PbO2 at 580–620 °C under an oxygen pressure of 1,400 atm (140 MPa). Therefore, thermal decomposition of lead dioxide is a common way of producing various lead oxides. Lead dioxide is an amphoteric compound with prevalent acidic properties.
