(a) 1.35 angstrom x (1 nanometer / 10 angstrom) = 0.135 nanometers 1.35 anstrom x ( 100 picometers / 1 angstrom) = 135 picometers (b) diameter = 2 x 1.35 = 2.70 angstromNumber of gold atoms in 1mm = (1mm / 2.7 angstrom) x ( 10^7 angstrom / 1 mm) = 3703703(c) Volume of 1 gold atom = 4/3 πr³ = 4/3 π (1.35 angstrom)³ x ( 10^-8 cm / 1 angstrom)³ = 1.03 x 10^-23 cm³...
