Not really. We can "trace the outline" of a single atom using a scanning tunneling microscope (STM), but that's it. The STM can investigate the atomic surface structure of a prepared sample using an extremely fine probe and some tight electronics with computer control. Use the link to see what Wikipedia says about this piece of gear. That link is below.

∙ 6y agoSure, everything you see is made of atoms, therefore you can see things made of atoms.
But the atoms themselves are too small to see without using special types of microscopes: e.g. atomic force microscope, scanning tunneling microscope.

What things are made up of atoms?
Everything! Atoms are in the air, water, and even us ! Atoms are are the elementary chemically indestructible components of any material in the world. Atoms are the bricks of molecules.
Where can atoms be found?
Atoms are the things that make up the world, so they are found everwhere.
Which two things are made when a plant breaks down sugar to release energy?
Sugar and sunlight 6CO2 + 6H2O + light energy = C6H12O6 + 6O2. That's the equation, as you can see 6 carbon dioxide atoms and 6 water atoms plus light enter the plant and after the reaction C6H12O6 (sugar) is produced and 6 oxygen2 atoms are produced
What's the other important thing that you need to know to understand electricity is that everything in the universe is made of tiny tiny things called?
Atoms
Who discovered all things are made of atoms?
In my textbook it sayes that actually Dalton believed that all substances are made of atoms, and this was part of his atomic theory, which he published in 1803.
How does atoms help living things?
living things are made of atoms.
Is everything made up of materials?
All THINGS are made up of atoms (of matter). (But "everything" - in human parlance - includes non-material things (like what you see).
What are 3 similarities between matter and atoms?
All things are made of atoms. Therefore matter is made up of atoms and they are the same.
Are nonliving things made of atoms?
yes! everything in this entire world is made up of thousands of atoms!
Are there atoms in a tree?
Yes, ALL physical things you can touch are made of atoms.
What do solids have to do with atoms?
Solids are made of atoms. In fact, so are most things.
What are materials made of nonmetallic metals?
things thing things ATOMS
The most basic of all things in physics and the material world is?
Atoms, molecules made of numerous types of atoms, compounds which are made of molecules and elements which are made of atoms.
Why are organic molecules are made of small atoms?
All things in the physical world are made of atoms. Say, are you a troll?
Why are models are used to represent atoms?
Atoms are too small to see.
What things in a classroom are made of atoms?
Basically everything and anything that is matter is composed of atoms. This would mean that literally, everything, in a classroom is made of atoms.
What do cells and atoms have in common?
Cells can't be cells without atoms. Atoms are the building blocks of things we see around us. Except atoms are NOT living things. Cells are the building blocks of living things. There are trillions of cells in our body. There are over 200 different kinds of cells.(blood,skin,muscle,nerve, aka) Our cells supports our body.
