It is possible to actually see atoms using a scanning tunneling microscope. true or false?

i think it's false because we cannot see atoms because they are mostly open spaceIt is possible to actually see atoms using a scanning tunneling microscope. true or false?
Hi. Well, we can see the effects of the outer electron shell. If this meets your criteria, then true.It is possible to actually see atoms using a scanning tunneling microscope. true or false?
NO





these particles, while useful for analytical purposes, do not actually exist at any particular time or space (note the relativity of this expression). In practice, we use probabilistic terms to assess the liklihood of finding them in a orbit of path.





In addition, we also have heisenberg's (spelling??) Uncertainty principal, which says that if you look, the behaviour of the particle will change.





makes sense ... if you shine a light (photon tube, observation tool of any kind, at an electron or atom, by definition, it will have sufficient power to whack the atom around, thus moving it from where it was/ought to be, to somewhere else ... where you are not looking!!
