Plumbous
Plumbous refers to lead, specifically the oxide, lead(II) oxide, or lead(II) oxide is a chemical compound with the formula PbO. However, the word "plumbous" is an archaic and somewhat poetic term for the element lead, or more specifically, the soft, malleable and greyish-white metal.In chemical nomenclature, the ending -(ox) is often used to denote an oxide. Hence the name for the related compound lead(IV) oxide is plumbic, leaving the term plumbous for the more "normal" state, which is lead(II) oxide.
