How is the element lead formed?

Natural formation of lead occurs by radioactive decay of uranium and thorium through radon (222Rn). Four stable isotopes are known, 204Pb, 206Pb, 207Pb and 208Pb, the first three of which are used for estimating the ages of rocks. Lead compounds exist mainly in +2 or +4 oxidation states, the former being more common.

in chemistry, adhesion and cohesion are attractive forces that exist between molecules. they hold the molecules together from each other. they are different in that adhesive force exists between molecules of different substance while cohesive force happens between molecules of same substance.

adhesion between water and glass causes water molecules at the edge of water and glass interface to climb up the wall in a narrow glass tube. this is called capillary action. cohesion is what gives glass its shape and causes water to form a droplet.

the answer is na (sodium)
