Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(A) \( 10^{-10} \text{ m} \)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

The size of an atom is approximately \(10^{-10}\) meters, a unit commonly referred to as one Angstrom. This dimension represents the outer boundary of the electron cloud, whereas the central nucleus is about 10,000 times smaller. A) \(10^{-10} m\)
