Question

The radius of an atom of element X is 1.2x10m The radius of the centre of the atom is 1/10000 the radius of the atom Calculate the radius of the centre of an atom of element X

Answer 1

`radius=1.2x10^(-3)m`

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello,

Based on the given information, the radius is computed via:

`radius=1.2x10m*(1)/(10000)=1.2x10^(-3)m`

By assuming that the radius of the element is 1.2x10m, nevertheless, that is a pretty much big radius for an atom in meters, maybe a power is missing, but you can modify it by just including it in the aforesaid formula.

Best regards.
