  • Right

  • Wrong

MCQ
True or False

Solution

The given sentence is wrong.

Explanation:

Atomic radius is normally reported in picometers (pm) or ångströms (Å) because typical atomic sizes are on the order of 10–300 pm (0.01 - 0.3 nm); 1 pm = 10−12 m. While you can convert to nanometres, `±/"A"` are the standard, more convenient units.
