a) how many Rb atoms could be placed on a square surface that is 1.0 cm on a side?
b)How many Rb atoms could be places on a square surface that is 1.0 cm on a side, using the second arrangement of atoms (sitting in "depressions")?
c)By what factor has the number of atoms on the surface increased in going to arramgement 2 from arrangement 1?
