How many more electrons does phosphorus have than boron?
Phosphorus has 10 more electrons. A neutral atom of phosphorus has 15 electrons, 3 in the outer 3p shell There are 5 electrons in a neutral atom of boron, 1 in the outer 2p shell.
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 An anion is smaller than the atom from which it is produced?
No, an anion is the atom plus extra electrons which give that atom a negative charge. The anion is thus, always bigger than the original atom.
Is a chlorine atom or chlorine ion bigger?
A sulfur atom is larger than an oxygen atom.
Which atom is bigger Co or Mt?
Down a group, atomic size increases. So Mt is bigger than Co.
Is the lithium atom bigger than the Cesium atom?
Not at all; the cesium atom is far bigger than the lithium atom.
Is xenon bigger than aluminum?
Yes, it is.
What makes an iron atom have a greater mass than an aliminium atom?
The amount of protons in the nucleus of an iron atom is greater than in that of an aluminum atom.
Is oxygen more electronegative than phosphorus?
According to the Pauling scale, the electronegativity of oxygen is 3.44 while that of phosphorus is 2.19. Therefore oxygen is more electronegative than phosphorus, i.e. the oxygen atom has a greater tendency to attract electrons towards itself than the phosphorus atom. Fluorine is the most electronegative element in the periodic table, with an electronegativity value of 3.98.
Is a sulfur atom bigger than an phosphorous atom?
The neutral atom is bigger. The ion would be smaller because in order for magnesium to become a positively charged ion, it has to give up its valence electrons, which results in the removal of the outermost energy level. So instead of having three energy levels, the ion now has only two.

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
Why is nitrogen more electronegative than phosphorus?
Chlorine is more electronegative than phosphorus. Generally, the trend of the periodic table is that electronegativity increases as you go from left to right, and it decreases as you go down.
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.
Is a headpin bigger than a atom?
Yes, of course
What is bigger than life but smaller than a molecule?
The Universe. an atom
Is a lead atom bigger than a silicon atom?
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
