PbCO3 crystallizes in the orthorhombic Pnma space group. Pb(1) is bonded in a 9-coordinate geometry to three equivalent O(2) and six equivalent O(1) atoms. C(1) is bonded in a trigonal planar geometry to one O(2) and two equivalent O(1) atoms. There are two inequivalent O sites. In the first O site, O(1) is bonded in a single-bond geometry to three equivalent Pb(1) and one C(1) atom. In the second O site, O(2) is bonded in a single-bond geometry to three equivalent Pb(1) and one C(1) atom.
PbCO3 crystallizes in the orthorhombic Pnma space group. Pb(1) is bonded in a 9-coordinate geometry to three equivalent O(2) and six equivalent O(1) atoms. There is one shorter (2.60 Å) and two longer (2.77 Å) Pb(1)-O(2) bond lengths. There are a spread of Pb(1)-O(1) bond distances ranging from 2.65-2.70 Å. C(1) is bonded in a trigonal planar geometry to one O(2) and two equivalent O(1) atoms. The C(1)-O(2) bond length is 1.29 Å. Both C(1)-O(1) bond lengths are 1.29 Å. There are two inequivalent O sites. In the first O site, O(1) is bonded in a single-bond geometry to three equivalent Pb(1) and one C(1) atom. In the second O site, O(2) is bonded in a single-bond geometry to three equivalent Pb(1) and one C(1) atom.
