Answer : The distance between the two atoms is 1.2\times 10^{-10}m

Explanation :

The The formula used for moment of inertia for one atom is:

I=(\frac{m}{2})r^2

The formula used for moment of inertia for two atom is:

I=2(\frac{m}{2})r^2

where,

I = moment inertia = 1.9\times 10^{-46}kg.m^2

r = distance of atom from axis of rotation

m = mass of atom = 5.3\times 10^{-26}kg

Now put all the given values in the above formula, we get:

I=2(\frac{m}{2})r^2

1.9\times 10^{-46}kg.m^2=2(\frac{5.3\times 10^{-26}kg}{2})r^2

r=6.0\times 10^{-11}m

Now we have to calculate the distance between the two atoms.

Formula used :

d=2r

where,

d = distance between the two atoms

d=2\times 6.0\times 10^{-11}m=1.2\times 10^{-10}m

Therefore, the distance between the two atoms is 1.2\times 10^{-10}m
