In lotic (running water) conditions, lead may be carried in an undissolved state. This undissolved inorganic lead may consist of suspended colloidal particles and larger undissolved particles of lead carbonate, oxide, and hydroxide. The undissolved lead may also be transported by sorption on mineral particles or carried as part of the suspended living or nonliving organic matter [44]. 

All Group IV elements form both a monoxide, MO, and a dioxide, MO2. The stability of the monoxide increases with atomic weight of the Group IV elements from silicon to lead, and lead(II) oxide, PbO, is the most stable oxide of lead. The monoxide becomes more basic as the atomic mass of the Group IV elements increases, but no oxide in this Group is truly basic and even lead(II) oxide is amphoteric. Carbon monoxide has unusual properties and emphasises the different properties of the group head element and its compounds. 

Lead(II) oxide is easily reduced to the metal when heated with a reducing agent such as hydrogen, carbon or carbon monoxide, for example ... 

PbF2 is readily prepared by the action of hydrogen fluoride on lead hydroxide, lead carbonate, or a-lead oxide. It can also be obtained by precipitation from lead nitrate or lead acetate solutions using potassium fluoride, ammonium fluoride, or ammonium bifluoride. 

Lead borate moaohydrate [14720-53-7] (lead metaborate), Pb(B02)2 H20, mol wt 310.82, d = 5.6g/cm (anhydrous) is a white crystalline powder. The metaborate loses water of crystallization at 160°C and melts at 500°C. It is iasoluble ia water and alkaHes, but readily soluble ia nitric and hot acetic acid. Lead metaborate may be produced by a fusion of boric acid with lead carbonate or litharge. It also may be formed as a precipitate when a concentrated solution of lead nitrate is mixed with an excess of borax. The oxides of lead and boron are miscible and form clear lead-borate glasses in the range of 21 to 73 mol % PbO. 

Various other soft materials without the layer—lattice stmcture are used as soHd lubricants (58), eg, basic white lead or lead carbonate [598-63-0] used in thread compounds, lime [1305-78-8] as a carrier in wire drawing, talc [14807-96-6] and bentonite [1302-78-9] as fillers for grease for cable pulling, and zinc oxide [1314-13-2] in high load capacity greases. Graphite fluoride is effective as a thin-film lubricant up to 400°C and is especially useful with a suitable binder such as polyimide varnish (59). Boric acid has been shown to have promise as a self-replenishing soHd composite (60). 

Final Purification. Oxygen containing compounds (CO, CO2, H2O) poison the ammonia synthesis catalyst and must be effectively removed or converted to inert species before entering the synthesis loop. Additionally, the presence of carbon dioxide in the synthesis gas can lead to the formation of ammonium carbamate, which can cause fouHng and stress-corrosion cracking in the compressor. Most plants use methanation to convert carbon oxides to methane. Cryogenic processes that are suitable for purification of synthesis gas have also been developed. 

Catalytic Pyrolysis. This should not be confused with fluid catalytic cracking, which is used in petroleum refining (see Catalysts, regeneration). Catalytic pyrolysis is aimed at producing primarily ethylene. There are many patents and research articles covering the last 20 years (84—89). Catalytic research until 1988 has been summarized (86). Almost all catalysts produce higher amounts of CO and CO2 than normally obtained with conventional pyrolysis. This indicates that the water gas reaction is also very active with these catalysts, and usually this leads to some deterioration of the olefin yield. Significant amounts of coke have been found in these catalysts, and thus there is a further reduction in olefin yield with on-stream time. Most of these catalysts are based on low surface area alumina catalysts (86). A notable exception is the catalyst developed in the former USSR (89). This catalyst primarily contains vanadium as the active material on pumice (89), and is claimed to produce low levels of carbon oxides. 

Azocarbonamide (I) Carbonamide N2, CO, CO2 190-230 220 Most widely used blowing agent in PVC and polyolefins. High decomposition temperature reduced by a variety of metal salts and oxides such as lead carbonate, lead phosphite and zinc oxide. High gas yield. Reaction products show little odour or discoloration. ... 

Cycloalkoxy radical intermediates are readily generated from a parent alcohol by various methods (e.g., nitrite ester photolysis, hypohalite thermolysis, lead tetraacetate oxidation) (83MI1). Once formed, reactive cycloalkoxy radicals undergo /3-scission to produce a carbonyl compound and a new carbon-centered radical. 

The pollutants most strongly damaging to human, animal, and sometimes plant health include ozone, fine particulate matter, lead, nitrogen oxides (NO ), sulfur oxides (SOJ, and carbon monoxide. Many other chemicals found in polluted air can cause lesser health impacts (such as eye irritation). VOC compounds comprise the bulk of such chemicals. Formaldehyde is one commonly mentioned pollutant of this sort, as is PAN (peroxyacyl nitrate). Such... 

Basic pigments Typical pigments in this class are basic lead carbonate, basic lead sulphate, red lead and zinc oxide. 

Crucibles fitted with permanent porous plates are cleaned by shaking out as much of the solid as possible, and then dissolving out the remainder of the solid with a suitable solvent. A hot 0.1 M solution of the tetrasodium salt of the ethylenediaminetetra-acetic acid is an excellent solvent for many of the precipitates [except metallic sulphides and hexacyanoferrates(III)] encountered in analysis. These include barium sulphate, calcium oxalate, calcium phosphate, calcium oxide, lead carbonate, lead iodate, lead oxalate, and ammonium magnesium phosphate. The crucible may either be completely immersed in the hot reagent or the latter may be drawn by suction through the crucible.

What are the half-reactions for these redox processes (a) Aqueous hydrogen peroxide acts on Co, and the products are hydroxide and Co , in basic solution, (b) Methane reacts with oxygen gas and produces water and carbon dioxide, (c) To recharge a lead storage battery, lead(II) sulfate is converted to lead metal and to lead(IV) oxide, (d) Zinc metal dissolves in aqueous hydrochloric acid to give ions and hydrogen gas. 

Newer secondary recovery plants use lead paste desulfurization to reduce sulfur dioxide emissions and waste sludge generation during smelting. Battery paste containing lead sulfate and lead oxide is desulfurized with soda ash to produce market-grade sodium sulfate solution. The desulfurized paste is processed in a reverberatory furnace. The lead carbonate product may then be treated in a short rotary furnace. The battery grids and posts are processed separately in a rotary smelter. 

Freshly cast lead has a bright, silvery appearance. On exposure to the atmosphere, however, lead in the surface layer combines with atmospheric oxygen and carbon dioxide to form a dark, stable gray coating of mixed lead oxide and basic lead carbonate. This layer usually protects the metal from further oxidation and corrosion (see Fig. 38). Protected by a weathered surface layer, solid lead is stable to further corrosion. Lead is also very ductile and soft, being the softest metal known in antiquity. It is mainly because of these properties that lead was widely used for building, to make pipes and roofs, and in naval construction, for example. Solid lead flows, albeit very... 

Using a "home made" aneroid calorimeter, we have measured rates of production of heat and thence rates of oxidation of Athabasca bitumen under nearly isothermal conditions in the temperature range 155-320°C. Results of these kinetic measurements, supported by chemical analyses, mass balances, and fuel-energy relationships, indicate that there are two principal classes of oxidation reactions in the specified temperature region. At temperatures much lc er than 285°C, the principal reactions of oxygen with Athabasca bitumen lead to deposition of "fuel" or coke. At temperatures much higher than 285°C, the principal oxidation reactions lead to formation of carbon oxides and water. We have fitted an overall mathematical model (related to the factorial design of the experiments) to the kinetic results, and have also developed a "two reaction chemical model". 

We propose that the complicated dry oxidation of bitumen can be represented as the sum of contributions from two classes of oxidation reaction. One class of reactions is the partial oxidation that leads to deposition of coke and formation of "oxygenated bitumen", with very little production of carbon oxides and water. This class of reactions is concisely summarized by... 

A significant fraction of lead carried by river water is expected to be in an undissolved form, which can consist of colloidal particles or larger undissolved particles of lead carbonate, lead oxide, lead hydroxide, or other lead compounds incorporated in other components of surface particulate matters from runoff. Lead may occur either as sorbed ions or surface coatings on sediment mineral particles, or it may be carried as a part of suspended living or nonliving organic matter in water. The ratio of lead in suspended solids to lead in dissolved form has been found to vary from 4 1 in rural streams to 27 1 in urban streams (Getzetal. 1977). 

Information available regarding the chemistry of lead in air is limited. Before the ban on sales of leaded gasoline, lead particles were emitted to the atmosphere from automobiles as lead halides (mostly PbBrCl) and as double salts with ammonium halides (e.g., 2PbBrCl NH4Cl. Pb3[P04]2, and PbS04 [Biggins and Harrison 1979 Ter Haar and Bayard 1971]). After 18 hours, approximately 75% of the bromine and 30-40% of the chlorine disappeared, and lead carbonates, oxycarbonates and oxides were produced.
