Answer:

See Explanation

Explanation:

Pb2O3 is better formulated as PbO.PbO2. It is actually a mixture of the two oxides of lead, lead II oxide and lead IV oxide.

This implies that this compound Pb2O3  (sometimes called lead sesquioxide) is a mixture of the oxides of lead in its two known oxidation states +II and +IV.

Hence Pb2O3  contains PbO and PbO2 units.
