Assume that the particles are spherical in shape with a diameter of 1 micron; that is, a radius of 0.5 microns. Each particle therefore has a volume of 0.5236 cubic microns, approx.

Now the volume to be filled is 1 cm3 = (104 microns)3 = 1012 cubic microns.

The highest density that can be achieved for sphere packing is pi/sqrt(18) so the maximum volume that the spheres can occupy is pi/sqrt(18)*1012 cubic microns = 7.405*1011 cubic microns.

At 0.5236 cubic microns each, this represents 1.4142*1012 particles or sqrt(2)*1012 of them.

Is a cubic inch greater than a cubic centimeter?

Yes, as one inch is 2.54 centimeters, a cubic inch is greater than a cubic centimeter. A cubic inch would be (2.54)^3 (2.54 to the power of 3) cubic centimeters, which is about 16.39 cubic centimeters or cm^3.


How many cubic centimeters are in a kilometer?

A cubic centimeter is a unit of volume and kilometer is a unit of distance. You cannot place cubic centimeters "into" a kilometer. If anything you can place cubic centimeters into a cubic kilometer. The answer to that would be: 1 cubic kilometer = 1e+15 cubic centimeter Which is basically a huge number: 1,000,000,000,000,000 cubic centimeters fit into one cubic kilometer. On the other hand you can line up 100,000, 1 centimeter (1cmx1cmx1cm) cubes in a straight line and their combined length would equal to one kilometer.
