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.

What weighs more one mole of oxygen or one mole of sodium?
One atom of sodium weighs more than one atom of oxygen. Thus, one mole of sodium weighs more than one mole of oxygen.
Why does one mole of carbon atoms have a smaller mass than one mole of sulfur atoms?
For the same reason that one dozen pencils has a smaller mass than one dozen bricks. Each atom of carbon weighs less than each atom of sulfur, and a mole of each has the same number of atoms, so a mole S will weigh more than a mole C.
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
Explain why a mole of iron atoms has more mass than a mole of helium atoms when there are the same number of atoms in a mole of each element?
A mole of iron has more mass than a mole of helium, even though they contain the same number of atoms, because 1 atom of iron has a greater mass than 1 atom of helium. It is similar to why 1 dozen bricks has a greater mass than 1 dozen roses. There are 12 items in each case, but 1 brick has a greater mass than 1 rose.
Is an oxygen atom bigger than a hydrogen atom?
An oxygen atom has 8 of each neutrons, electrons, and protons. While a carbon atom has only 6 of each. I had the same problem! So i hope this helped :)
Is the lithium atom bigger than the Cesium atom?
Not at all; the cesium atom is far bigger than the lithium atom.
What weighs more one mole of oxygen or one mole of sodium?
One atom of sodium weighs more than one atom of oxygen. Thus, one mole of sodium weighs more than one mole of oxygen.
Why does one mole of carbon atoms have a smaller mass than one mole of sulfur atoms?
For the same reason that one dozen pencils has a smaller mass than one dozen bricks. Each atom of carbon weighs less than each atom of sulfur, and a mole of each has the same number of atoms, so a mole S will weigh more than a mole C.
15.Why does one mole of carbon atoms have a smaller mass than one mole of sulfur atoms?
Because the sum of protons, neutrons and electrons masses in sulfur atom is higher than in a carbon 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 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
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
How big is 0.27 grams of aluminum?
It is as 'big' as 0.01 mole Al (not the 'rodent' mole, that's much bigger than 0.27 g!)
Can scratching a mole make it bigger?
Scratching a mole will not make it get bigger.I scratch my mole on my arm every day and it never got bigger.
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.
