The atom is the smallest constituent of matter that has the properties of a chemical element. On average, \u00a0the diameter of an atom is about 100 pm (pm is for picometer; 1 pm is 0,000 000\u00a0000 001 m). In meters it is about: \"1*10^{-10} m\" , while in millimeters \"1*10^{-7} mm\", which means that the diameter of an atom is the ten-millionth of a millimeter. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

To get an idea of really great or really short lengths, we must compare them with mundane things, the sizes of which we know. For example: the diameter of a human hair is around \"100 \mu m\", or \"1*10^{-4} m\". \u00a0\u00a0So, within a diameter of human hair we can range around 1 million atoms. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

What about the nucleus of the atom? The diameter of the nucleus is in the range of \"1,756*10^{-15} m\" for hydrogen (the diameter of a single proton) to about\u00a0\"11,714*10^{-15} m\" for the heaviest atom uranium. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

If we consider that the diameter of a football is 0,22 m, then for the nucleus to reach the football\u2019s size it must grow \"10^{15}\"\u00a0times. When the atom grows that much, then it would have a diameter of about \"10^{5} m\" ; which in kilometers would be 100 km. So, if the nucleus of an atom was the size of a football, then the atom would be roughly as great as Connecticut (USA). <\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
