most of an atoms volume is nothing, think of the atom as a football stadium, a football in the centre is the neucleus, electrons would be the size of peas in the very back row, the rest is empty space. on top of that the neclues is made of protons and neutrons, which spaces between, these necleons are made of quarks which also have empty space between them, the quarks are made of neons which again have spaces between. Many physicists believes this continues in this fashion.

Empty Space! If a the head of a pin was representative of the nucleus of an atom, the electron cloud would start around 150 feet around it! That is, if everything were enlarged...
