?True of False...Scientists can observe computer enhanced images of atoms?
Well of course, Scientist fire an atom at another atom first, and that determines the shape firstly. Then they can further enhance the image and so on and some times they can actually even determine what the substance will look like.True of False...Scientists can observe computer enhanced images of atoms?
True - scientists can get images of atoms from an instrument called a scanning electron microscope. It bounces electrons off the ';surface'; of the atom, creating a three-dimensional picture of what the atom looks like. These images can be fed into a computer and enhanced so that the viewer can more easily distinguish characteristics of that atom or whatever surface they are scanning.
