The lead(IV) oxide used in car batteries is prepared by coat-ing the electrode plate with PbO and then oxidizing it to leaddioxide (PbO₂). Despite its name, PbO₂ has a nonstoichiometricratio of lead to oxygen of about 1/1.98. In fact, the holes in the PbO₂ crystal structure due to missing O atoms are responsiblefor the oxide’s conductivity. (a) What is the mole % of O miss-ing from the PbO₂ structure?
