QuestionConvert 128pm128 \mathrm{pm} (picometers) to angstroms.

Studdy Solution

STEP 1

Assumptions1. The given radius of the copper atom is 128pm128 \, pm (picometers). . We need to convert this radius to angstroms.
3. The conversion factor between picometers and angstroms is 1angstrom=100pm1 \, angstrom =100 \, pm.

STEP 2

First, we need to set up the conversion from picometers to angstroms using the conversion factor.
Radiusangstroms=Radiuspm×ConversionfactorRadius_{angstroms} = Radius_{pm} \times Conversion\, factor

STEP 3

Now, plug in the given values for the radius and the conversion factor to calculate the radius in angstroms.
Radiusangstroms=128pm×1angstrom100pmRadius_{angstroms} =128 \, pm \times \frac{1 \, angstrom}{100 \, pm}

STEP 4

Perform the multiplication to find the radius in angstroms.
Radiusangstroms=128×1100=1.28angstromsRadius_{angstroms} =128 \times \frac{1}{100} =1.28 \, angstromsThe radius of the copper atom is 1.28angstroms1.28 \, angstroms.
