Polonium (II) oxide , PoO, is the divalent oxide from the series of polonium oxides .
Extraction
The spontaneous decay of polonium (II) sulfite or polonium (II) selenite gives rise to , among other things, polonium (II) oxide.
properties
Polonium hydroxide can be obtained by adding an alkali to polonium monoxide . The polonium can be oxidized into Po 4+ in both compounds by air or water .
