yeah but learning that electrons are like 1000+ times smaller than protons and most atoms are way bigger than just protons is standard science

if you did any physics for atomic reaction, calculating the energy released per atom in a hydrogen bomb for example it's clear also

electron size vs atom size fucked me somehow

How? Atoms are made up of Electrons, Protons, and Neutrons. This is like 6th grade shit.


It's a pretty weird question though. It's not directly comparing things like an Electron to a Proton or Neutron it's instead comparing the collection of all 3 to one. I actually had to take some time on that question while having 2 years of varsity chemistry under my belt ;(

That's like saying "Is a wheel bigger than a car". No, a car has multiple wheels and also other parts. A car cannot be smaller than a wheel. Anything made up of smaller pieces cannot be smaller than one of those pieces.

I know what it's like. I've just never encounter such a comparison so it was weird. Always deal with electron vs the nucleus. Even something like "what's the smallest part of a classic atom" makes a bit more sense to me.

A wheel can be bigger than a car. A car, however, can't be smaller than its own wheel.

if the car is composed purely of 1 wheel and the wheel gets worn out then maybe..

also my MMR is not a reflection of my real ability


i got 13/13, but i find trivia boring and meddlesome
like i only know the nitrogen thing because i deal with combustion every day at work

or fracking because i watched csi

but like why not put a question like "what are the integral and differential forms of maxwell's equations" because we can keep going over science superiority or whatever

If I harken back to my Gizmos and Gadget days there were 3 types of reactions in the puzzles: physical, chemical, and nuclear (?) maybe.

That entire quiz was the stuff I learnt at the start of secondary school, I almost feel ashamed that I got one wrong


Which one did you get wrong?
