The radius of a nitrogen atom is 5.6 × 10-11 meters, and the radius of a beryllium atom is 1.12 × 10-10 meters. Which atom has a larger radius, and by how many times is it larger than the other?

The beryllium atom; 1.99 times larger.

Step-by-step explanation:

The beryllium atom is 0.000000000112 meters, while the nitrogen atom is 0.000000000056 meters. So, the beryllium atom is larger than the other.

(1.12 * 10^-10) / (5.6 * 10^-11)

= (1.112 / 5.6) * (10^-10 + 11)

= 0.1985714286 * 10

= 1.985714286 * 10^0

So, the beryllium atom is about 1.99 times larger than the other.

Hope this helps!
