What is the atomic structure of lead?

Answer 1

Lead sulfate (PbSO4) is an ionic compound. It consists of a lead ion (Pb2+) and a sulfate ion (SO42-) bound together in an ionic bond. The structure of the sulfate ion is a sulfur atom surrounded by 4 oxygen atoms.

Answer 2

Well, i don't know the answer to this question, but i do know that there are 82 electrons in lead. So it must have 80 shells with 2 electrons on the outer shell. Hey, i just answered the question! The Lewis structure for lead has 2 electrons.~*~ The above answer is actually completely incorrect. the very first shell does not have 8 valence electrons it has two. Because of this there are 4 electrons in the Lewis structure. The easiest way to tell how many electrons are in a Lewis structure for a representative element is that the group number (for example, 1A 2A 3A 4A) is also the number of electrons in the Lewis structure. Lead is in group 4A so it has 4 electrons in the structure

Answer 3

Lead has an atomic number of 82, meaning it has 82 protons in its nucleus. It typically has 125 neutrons and 82 electrons in a neutral atom. Lead has a relatively large atomic radius due to its high atomic number and electron shielding.

Answer 4

Elemental lead is bonded by metallic bonds.

Answer 5

Lead (plumbum, Pb) is an element thus not forming a molecule with itself being a metal.

It can 'crystallize' (as solid material) in a atom array of particles

Answer 6

protons:82

neutrons:126

electrons:82

Answer 7

The electron configuration of lead is: [Xe]4f145d106s26p2.
