I chose this image, or chose to draw it because it gave me a really good visual about how small an atom is. Just by reading 'one ten-millionth of a millimeter' doesn't really help me understand just how small an atom is besides the fact that it's really small. Also, by small, it's saying that an atom needs to be enlarged to a size so many times more bigger than itself in order for the naked eye to see, and then, even barely.
-How much do you have to enlarge the biggest atom in order to see it?
-What would the weight of an atom be compared to the weight of the Empire State Building, and would it be an accurate comparison?
