F

Almost all of the mass of an atom is in its nucleus, and the nucleus fills only a tiny part of the volume of the atom. What does this tell you about the nucleus?

A

Its density is far greater than the average density of the whole atom.

B

Its density is far smaller than the average density of the whole atom.

C

Its density is exactly the same as the average density of the atom.

D

Its density depends on how many electrons surround that nucleus.
