Hello,The gold, like all matter (outside of certain things like black holes and such), is almost entirely empty space. What we "see" is the result of interactions between light and the fields around and between the atoms in the gold. It's the same with your butt and the chair you are sitting on. No atom in your butt is actually touching any atom in the chair. But the fields interact and the resulting forces keep the atoms in your butt form simply slipping between the atoms in the chair (and the floor, and the ground, and everything else separating you from the center of the Earth).
...Atomic Force Microscope.Then there are the atomic matrix pictures done with (don't remember the name of the equipment) a specialized probe that goes down to the point of one atom. QED? They are used in text books to show the impurities in semiconductor grade silicon.
this is related to the crystal matrix, not so much the atoms.How far is atom to each other? So why gold is colored gold? Does that mean the atom is gold?
Why can't we see individual atoms though they are packed very closely to each other?
Why atom cannot be break down? For example, we have 1 atom and we have a very special scissor, would the atom be cutted or not? Is there are force that keep it not cut/divided?
Sorry, Google sometimes shows results i cant understand.
Depends on the number of protons/electrons in a particular atom type.How far is atom to each other?

Atom's can, and do, brake down. see Nuclear_fissionWhy atom cannot be break down? For example, we have 1 atom and we have a very special scissor, would the atom be cutted or not?
See weak nuclear forceIs there are force that keep it not cut/divided?
?Keep this thread alive
He does not properly understand about atoms. You also seem to lack a bit understanding of the difference between atoms and molecular matrix.?
Its your tread. Although splitting your atom question in more specific questions(topic's) would probably be better. Although that of course depends on what your target is for this topic. (A general random atom talk topic don't seems that useful in the long run to me.)
Hmmm, I mean different.Human scale: there just to tiny so be seen by our eye's
Atom scale: ... (lacking specific knowledge here to give a general answer)
This is because the eye is not a 1:1 WYSIWYG device.Hmmm, I mean different.
Think of a glitter, a one glitter. Can you see a glitter in a far distance (say about 10 meters away)? But if they are packed together and they are many we can see that right?
Why in a 10x10x10 meter gold, can't we see atom? Unless there is only 10 atoms there, I can not understand it. In a 10m^3 gold,there are many atoms held together right?
Sorry for my bad understanding of atom .
If you take the time to answer the questions I asked, you will see that atoms are not packed closely to each other. Atoms can, and do, break down. It is called nuclear fission. Sometimes it happens spontaneously and we call it radioactivity and other times it heppens because we force it to happen, typically by bombarding atoms with high energy neutrons.How far is atom to each other?
