Oxides, oxoacids and hydroxides

3) in contrast, PbCU is hydrolysed by water and decomposes to PbCl2 and CI2 when gently heated. The Pb(II) halides are considerably more stable than their Pb(IV) analogues and are crystalline solids at 298 K they can be precipitated by mixing aqueous solutions of soluble halide and soluble Pb(II) salts (e.g. equation 13.52). Note that few Pb(II) salts are very soluble in water.
