Lead polonide is the polonide of lead, with the chemical formula of PbPo. It occurs naturally, as lead is produced in the alpha decay of polonium.3
Preparation
Lead polonide can be formed by reacting polonium vapour and lead under a vacuum.4
Properties
Lead polonide has a sodium chloride structure, which is the same as lead telluride. It has a cubic crystal structure, with the space group Fm3m (No. 225), with lattice constant a = 6.59 Å.5
