Balanced chemical equation help…?

Ok this is the problem:
Car batteries use solid lead and lead (IV) oxide with sulfuric acid solution to produce an electric current. The products of this reaction are lead (II) sulfate in solution and water.

Could someone please tell me what would the balanced chemical equation be?

Lead+ Lead(IV) Oxise + Sulfuric Acid = Lead(II) Sulfate + Water

Pb + Pb02+ H2S04 =PbSO4 + H20

Theres the formula.

Pb+ Pb02 + 2H2SO4 = 2PbSO4 + 2H20

Heres the balanced equation.
I’m almost positive this is right. I had a test on this earlier this month.
