Chapter 1.7, Problem 1.6P

The gold foil Rutherford used in his scattering experiment had a thickness of approximately 0.005 mm. If a single gold atom has a diameter of 2.9 × 10−8 cm and the atoms are arranged so as to touch each other in a straight line, how many atoms thick was Rutherford’s foil?

Can you please help me solve this problems. The top one is just drawing out the skeletal correct and then the bottom one is just very confusing to me and its quite small in the images. Can you enlarge it and explain it to me please. Thank You much (ME EX1) Prblm #33
I'm trying to memorize VESPR Shapes to solve problems like those. I need help making circles like the second image in blue or using an x- and y-axis plane to memorize these and solve those types of problems, especially the ones given in the top/first image (180, 120, 109.5). Can you help me with this? or is their any other efficient method do so
Can you please explain this problems to me? I'm very confused about it. Please provide a detailed, step-by-step explanation for me! (ME EX1) Prblm 27
