How many atoms are in one mole of the element Lead(Pb)

What does it mean to have a mole of something?
 
I believe it means to have one molecule of a specific element. correct me if i am wrong
 
You're wrong. Look up the definition of a mole.
 
a mole is similar to the term dozen, were as if I have one dozen eggs I have 12 eggs in all; where the atom is like the egg. so thus if I have x=mole and i desire to find the atoms i will take x(6.022*10^23)=atoms. correct?
