Lead chloride

Description:
Lead chloride, with the chemical formula PbCl₂ and CAS number 7758-95-4, is an inorganic compound characterized by its white crystalline appearance. It is poorly soluble in water but dissolves in hot water and certain organic solvents. Lead chloride exhibits a high melting point and is known for its hygroscopic nature, meaning it can absorb moisture from the air. The compound is primarily used in various applications, including as a precursor in the synthesis of other lead compounds, in the production of lead-based pigments, and in certain types of glass and ceramics. Lead chloride is also notable for its toxicity, as lead is a heavy metal that poses significant health risks, including neurological damage and other systemic effects upon exposure. Therefore, handling this substance requires strict safety precautions to minimize risks associated with lead exposure. In terms of reactivity, lead chloride can undergo hydrolysis and can react with strong acids and bases, forming lead salts and releasing hydrochloric acid.
