Best Answer

Strings are much, much, much, much smaller than atoms. Strings are expected to be on the order of the Planck length; about 10-35 m. Atoms, in contrast, are on the order of Angstroms, 10-10 m. If strings were expanded to the size of atoms, atoms on this new scale would be many times larger than the solar system.

Rubidium is a neutral atom in its elemental form. The rubidium ion, found in rubidium compounds, is smaller than a neutral rubidium atom.


Smaller particles than the atom?

A particle smaller than atom is a subatomic particle, protons , neutrons, and , electrons, the smallest one is an electron, smaller than that are point particles and elementary particles, one elementary particle and point particle is a quark, up quarks down quarks the smallest single thing found so far is a GLUON, which is the force which binds/holds quarks together. Where the devil lives in anti matter there are also atoms and subatomic particles and point particles but just anti, anti- GLUON, anti-QUARK, anti-ATOM, anti-SUBATOMIC PARTICLE. There is something called the string theory, and super string theory that theorizes about bosonic/boson strings but it can not be provine yet, and I think a gluon is still alot smaller than a bosonic/boson string if they are true.

Is an atom bigger than a mole?

An atom is a component of matter; mole is a unit for the amount of substance in SI. Of course a mole of atoms is bigger than a single atom.

When an atom becomes a cation what happens to it's radius?

The atomic radius of a cation is smaller than that of its original atom. See the related link for an image example of what this may look like.
