  2. Angstrom - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Angstrom

    The atomic (covalent) radii of phosphorus, sulfur, and chlorine are about 1 angstrom, while that of hydrogen is about 0.5 angstroms. Visible light has wavelengths in the range of 4000–7000 Å. In the late 19th century, spectroscopists adopted 10 −10 of a metre as a convenient unit to express the wavelengths of characteristic spectral lines ...

    The picometre (SI symbol: pm) is a unit of length in the metric system equal to 10 −12 metres (⁠ 1 / 1 000 000 000 000 ⁠ m = 0. 000 000 000 001 m). To help compare different orders of magnitude this section lists lengths between 10 −12 and 10 −11 m (1 pm and 10 pm). 1 pm – distance between atomic nuclei in a white dwarf [citation ...
