The atoms in your body are mostly empty space . And so are the atoms in any wall. Why then is your body unable to pass through walls ?

Sagot :

First of all, both are not a single sheet of atom. There are many layers of atoms, so the empty part gets beside each other, so there are less empty part. Secondly, there are so many atoms that the probability that they will have empty space at the same place necessary, is negligible.

This was something from logic.

The reason I was taught in my class was that only a limited number of electrons can be in a given orbit, so atoms cannot overlap each other.
