The radius of the potassium atom is [tex]2.27\times 10^{-4} \mu m[/tex].
Explanation:
Given:
The radius of potassium atom =[tex]2.27\times 10^{-7} mm[/tex]
To find:
The radius of potassium atom in micrometers.
Solution:
The radius of potassium atom =[tex]2.27\times 10^{-7} mm[/tex]
In 1 millimeter there are 1000 micrometers.
[tex]1 mm = 1000 \mu m[/tex]
Then in [tex]2.27\times 10^{-7} mm[/tex]:
[tex]=2.27\times 10^{-7} \times 1000\\=2.27\times 10^{-4} \mu m[/tex]
The radius of the potassium atom is [tex]2.27\times 10^{-4} \mu m[/tex].
