Yes. A Lead atom is significantly bigger than a Silicon atom.
The atomic radius of a Pb atom is 175 pm while that of a Si atom is 111 pm.
Note: pm = picometer = 10-12 meters

Which has more mass an atom of gold or lead?
the lead atom is heavier, but it also bigger. therefore the density of lead is less than that of gold
Is an atom bigger than a mole?
An atom is a component of matter; mole is a unit for the amount of substance in SI. Of course a mole of atoms is bigger than a single atom.
Which element has a larger atomic radius silicon or lead?
Atomic radius of Si is 111pm.Atomic radius of Pb is 175pm.Therefore lead has a larger atomic radius than silicon.
Is lead heavier than iridium?
Lead has a higher atomic number than iridium, which means a lead atom is heavier than an iridium atom. however iridium is denser, therefore if you had a block of iridium and a block of lead,the iridium block would be heavier
Explain why silicon's atom is larger than argon's atom?
Silicon is larger than Argon for several reasons: If the electron configuration is examined, it becomes clear. Si has the configuration [Ne]3s23p2 while Argon's is [Ne] 3s23p6 As you can see, both elements have valence electrons in the same energy level, the p orbital, but Argot has more protons in its nucleus, so therefore, it's pull of the electrons to it's core is higher than that of Silicon. So, Argon is SMALLER than Silicon. Hope this helped.
Is a sodium atom is larger than a silicon atom?
No. A cesium atom is larger both in terms of atomic mass and atomic radius.
Which has more mass an atom of gold or lead?
the lead atom is heavier, but it also bigger. therefore the density of lead is less than that of gold
Is the lithium atom bigger than the Cesium atom?
Not at all; the cesium atom is far bigger than the lithium atom.
Will kilogram of hydrogen contain more atoms then kilogram of lead?
Yes, because each hydrogen atom has less mass than each lead atom.Yes, because each hydrogen atom has less mass than each lead atom.Yes, because each hydrogen atom has less mass than each lead atom.Yes, because each hydrogen atom has less mass than each lead atom.
Is an atom smaller than a compound?
An atom is smaller than a compound because if an electron fits in an atom, and an atom is a part of a compound, it means a compound is bigger than an atom
Is an atom bigger than a mole?
An atom is a component of matter; mole is a unit for the amount of substance in SI. Of course a mole of atoms is bigger than a single atom.
Which element has a larger atomic radius silicon or lead?
Atomic radius of Si is 111pm.Atomic radius of Pb is 175pm.Therefore lead has a larger atomic radius than silicon.
Is a headpin bigger than a atom?
Yes, of course
What is bigger than life but smaller than a molecule?
The Universe. an atom
What elements are in the carbon family other than silicon?
germanium, tin, and lead
Why The bigger the atom have low ionization energy?
it is bigger..so it has more electron in orbit than smaller atom...so it keep simple
Is a lead atom heavier than a helium atom?
Yes; helium has an atomic weight of 4.00260, and lead has an atomic weight of 207.2.
