Well...I am not sure about where did you find this number but...I found: #1.5xx10^-16#

Explanation:

#0.000000000000000000000000000000023#
can be written as:
#230/10^34#
taking the square root you get:
#sqrt(230/10^34)=sqrt(230/((10^17)^2))=sqrt(230)/10^17=#
considering that: #15^2=225#
let us assume that #sqrt(230)~~15#
so finally you get:
#~~15/10^(17)=15xx10^-17=1.5xx10^-16#
