yes No. Inert elements have an outer electron shell which is exactly filled to capacity. Some of the inert elements are helium, neon, argon, and krypton. These are also referred to as "Nobel Gases". Lead is not one of these. The characteristic of these elements being "Inert", is that except under rare or extreme circumstances, they will not bond with other elements. Lead does not fit this characteristic. To see a list of about 30 common Lead compounds, search (Google, ...) for:
common compounds of lead
and visit the link titled: "Common Compounds of Lead Pb -- EndMemo" (EndMemo.com) Some of the lead compounds listed there are: Lead Chloride (PbCl2/PbCl4), Lead Oxide (PbO/PbO2), Lead Sulfite (PbSO3), Lead Sulfate (PbSO4).

What family of elements is inert?
Noble gas family consisting of Helium, Neon, Argon,Krypton, Xenon and Radon is inert. They have stable electronic configuration and hence they are inert and non-reactive.

lead is an inert metal and can not be magnetised
What in a bb billlit?
Do you mean Bullet? Is usually made from Copper, lead, steel or other inert materials.
Is leaded glass in a lamp harmful?
No, lead is only harmful if it exists in a form than can be introduced into the body. Lead glass or crystal is bound in the glass structure so as to render it inert.

Why do lead and tin have different oxidation numbers even they are not in the transition element area?
One rationalization is the "inert pair effect" - lead and tin have oxidation numbers of +2 and +4 . The inert pair effect also rationaliss the two oxidation numbers of +1 and +3 exhibited by gallium, indium and thallium. In compounds with the lower oxidation numebrs the s electrons are not removed.
Is oxygen inert?
no oxygen is not a inert gas
What is a sentence using the word inert?
The inert gas had no effect on the experiment. The bomb was inert and failed to explode.
Is Gold chemically active or inert?
Gold is active, or at least not inert. Only the noble gases are inert.
