In humans the lungs occupy a large portion of the chest cavity from the collarbone down to the diaphragm. The right lung is divided into three sections, or lobes. The left lung, with a cleft to accommodate the heart, has only two lobes.
Thus right lung is slightly bigger than the left lung.

The right lung is larger than the left. The right is divided into three lobes and the left is two lobes due to the heart being situated left of the midline.

Yes, the right lung is slightly larger than the left one because there must be space to accommodate the heart.
