Lead has atomic number 82, if it loses 2 protons and 2 neutrons (ie an alpha particle) it becomes Mercury with atomic number 80. Only lead-204 (1.4 percent of natural lead) and lead-210 (trace only) appear to do this, and 204 has such a long half life that it is regarded as stable, so your postulated reaction does not seem to be typical of lead as a whole.

How many protons and electrons nd neutrons in lead?
Lead has: 82 Protons 82 Neutrons 125 Electrons
What has 82 protons and 126 neutrons?
Lead-208, which is 52.3% of natural lead.
What isotope remains after the alpha decay of polonium 212?
Polonium 212 has 84 protons and 128 neutrons. An alpha particle is 2 protons and 2 neutrons, so the daughter nucleus will have 82 protons and 126 neutrons, making it lead 208.
How many protons are in Lead 204?
This is actually a very, very easy question to answer. Now, all atoms of the same element have the same number of protons. Otherwise, they wouldn't be the same element. For instance, if lead had one more proton, it would be bismuth, a non-toxic shiny metalloid. If it had one less, it would be thallium: a deadly poison which was only recently found. Lead has 82 protons. When the number is given by an element name (e.g. lead-204), it is also showing the atom's nucleus' mass number. Natural lead contains lead-204, lead-206, lead-207, and lead-208. Each of these contains the same number of protons, but different numbers of neutrons, hence the mass difference. To find the number of neutrons, N, we subtract the number of protons, Z, from the mass number, A. So, 204 - 82 = 122. Lead-204 contains 122 neutrons.
What is lead is made from?
Lead is an atom consisting of 82 protons and 82 electrons. The number of neutrons depends on the isotope of lead. Pb-207 isotope has 125 neutrons (207 - 82 = 125)

What has 82 protons and 126 neutrons?
Lead-208, which is 52.3% of natural lead.
How many neutrons does lead have?
It depends on the isotope (atoms of lead with different numbers of neutrons). There are three stable isotopes of lead:206Pb has 124 neutrons207Pb has 125 neutrons208Pb has 126 neutrons
