What else can I help you with?
Is measuring the size of an atom by the size of its orbital not very accurate?
No. It is the only way to measure an atom because the orbital is the outer part of the atom and determines its size.
What best describes the nucleus of an atom?
It’s the most massive part of the atom
Which atom is the smallest in size?
The atom that is smallest in size is the hydrogen atom.
The volume of an atom is determined by the size of?
By the size of the atom and its mass
What part of the atom is attributed most of the atom's size?
The nucleus. The nucleus contains both of the protons and neutrons of an atom, and make up more than 99% of the atoms matter and weight. If size is talking about measurements of width and space taken up, the outer ring of the atom, the electrons, span out away from the nucleus, orbiting it in an elliptical shape. The electrons of an atom are not physically attached to the atom, and can be arguably not part of the specific atom because the electrons can become intertwined with other atoms' electrons.
Why the size of atom is biggest than nucleus?
The size of an atom is bigger than the nucleus because an atom consists of a nucleus surrounded by electron clouds. The electrons are located further away from the nucleus, leading to the overall larger size of the atom.
What is the approximate size of an atom?
An atom is the size of an orange compared to the Earth.
What is the size of a silicon atom?
The size of a silicon atom is about 0.11 nanometers.

Is a molecule part of a atom?
no an atom is a part of a molecule.
Is a neutron smaller than an atom?
Yes, a neutron is smaller than an atom. Neutrons are subatomic particles found within the nucleus of an atom, along with protons, and are about the same size as protons. Atoms consist of a nucleus made up of protons and neutrons, surrounded by electrons in orbit.
If the nucleus of an atom were the size of a marble then the atom itself would be the size of?
The atom itself would be the size of an NFL stadium.
