Given information
Use the molar mass of neon to estimate the mass of a neon atom. Then use the atomic radius of neon to calculate the average density of a neon atom.
Step-by-step explanation
Step 1.
The mass of one neon atom is calculated by dividing its molar mass by the Avogadro number.
The atomic radius of a neon atom is 
.
The conversion of radius from pm into cm is as follows:
Hence, the radius of the Neon atom is 
.
