Question

The nucleus of the hydrogen atom has a radius of about 1.0 × 10-15 m. The electron is at a distance of about 5.29 × 10-11 m from the nucleus. Assuming the hydrogen atom is a sphere with a radius of 5.29 × 10-11 m, find (a) the volume of the atom, (b) the volume of the nucleus, and (c) the percentage of the volume of the atom that is occupied by the nucleus.

Step 1

29 \times 10^{-11}\) m. \[V_{\text{atom}} = \frac{4}{3} \times \pi \times (5.29 \times 10^{-11})^3\] \[V_{\text{atom}} = 6.2 \times 10^{-31} \, \text{m}^3\] Show more…
