re: #135 Colère Tueur de Lapin

Atoms get around; it’s just that there are a lot of them. The numbers in Nyet’s post have a lot of zeros. Look at it this way to think in terms you can understand a little easier:

22.4 l gas /mole
5 x 10^18 liters of atmosphere alone
1 mole = 6.02 x 10^23 molecules.
10^50 atoms on earth
10^25 atoms in a human.

Ok, maybe not easier, but when dealing with exponents that large, the odds of them repeating are small.

*-all number some what approximate; significant figures are not really there at all.

You’re talking to a former science teacher/physics major. Big exponents don’t scare me!
