Question
2. te We talked about the structure of an atom in class. Using the atomic
quantities that we discussed (or found in your book), think about the scale of things:
(A) If the nucleus were the size of an American football, then what would be
radius of an iron atom? (I know that the size of a football is not obvious: it has
a major and minor axis, so technically it has two radii. For this problem, you
can approximate even an American football to be a sphere.)
(B) How does the radius you calculated in B compare to the size of the city of
Clemson? (i.e., quantitatively state the radius in terms of a fraction or percent.)
