| An angstrom is just a unit of length, like an inch or a mile or a
meter. One Angstrom is one ten billionth of a meter. Every molecule has
dimensions that can be measured in Angstroms, with neighboring atoms
usually a little more than one Angstrom apart. If you Google for
"benzene molecular dimensions' or something like that, maybe you'll
find some sizes for the molecules you're wondering about. "bond
lengths' might be another key phrase. Mike W. |
