Everything on an atomic scale is very small. However, if you consider the subatomic particles: Protons and Neutrons in the nucleus are tightly packed together. But, the electrons and the electron cloud are relatively distantly separated from the nucleus giving the atom a size much greater than the sum of the sizes of the individual components.

They are tightly packed and vibrate.
Atoms are in a solid but as in particles it depends on the object.
density
it is packed 900 demerios
When the atoms in an object are packed tightly together, the object will usually have a higher density and be solid in form. This close arrangement of atoms allows for stronger intermolecular forces, contributing to the object's rigidity and structural integrity. As a result, tightly packed atoms typically lead to materials that are less compressible and exhibit greater strength.
Atoms are most tightly packed in the solid phase.

solid- atoms more tightly packed specific shape and volume liquid- atoms slightly less tightly packed, no specific shape, specific volume
The density of an object describes how tightly packed its matter is. It is calculated as an object's mass divided by its volume. A high density indicates closely packed matter, while a low density indicates less tightly packed matter.
