Question
Chapter 2, Problem 2A
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation: The invisibility of atoms through naked eye needs to be explained.
Concept introduction: Atoms are the basic units of matter and the defining structure of elements. Atoms consist of a nucleus made of protons and neutrons orbited by electrons.
Expert Solution & Answer

Answer to Problem 2A
Due to small size of atom, it cannot be seen by naked eyes.
Explanation of Solution
Atoms generally have a diameter of about 0.1 to 0.3 nm (
Conclusion
Thus, due to small size of atom, it cannot be seen by naked eyes.
