Textbook Question
Chapter 3, Problem 3.108PAE
3.108 As chip speeds increase, the width of the interconnects described in Problem 3.107 must be reduced. A hypothetical limit to this process would be reached if the interconnect was just one copper atom wide. Use the density of copper (8.96 g/cm3) to estimate the diameter of a copper atom. (Optical interconnects are being developed, and are likely to replace copper in this application within a few years.)

Complete the following table. The only density needed is already given. Show your
calculations in a neat and easy-to-follow manner in the space below the table. All units
should be included and significant figures should be given close attention. Be sure to notice
that the amount of material should be in millimoles rather than moles, and the theoretical
mass of the product should in milligrams rather than grams.
