The radius of a copper (Cu) atom is roughly 1.3x10−10 m. How many times can you divide evenly a 223.3−cm long piece of copper wire until it is reduced to two separate copper atoms? (Assume there are appropriate tools for this procedure and that copper atoms are lined up in a straight line, in contact with each other. Round off your answer to an integer.)

In other words if the volume of the material weighs less than the same volume of water (for example a piece of plastic). An object sinks in water if it is more dense than water (for example a piece of steel). The same principle applies for objects surrounded by air. Objects that are less dense than air, i.e., weigh less than the same volume of air, will float upward. For example, a helium-filled balloon floats upward because the helium inside the balloon weighs less than the same volume of air, since helium molecules weigh less than the nitrogen and oxygen that make up most of our atmosphere. Objects that are more dense than air, like humans, sink to the bottom of the atmosphere. Suppose we put some air in a sealed, flexible container like a balloon. No air can enter or leave the container, but since the container is flexible, it can easily change its size or volume. At first, the air temperature, air number density, and air…arrow_forward
