What the hell is it with Avogadro’s number and the damn rolling-eyes smiley face? I assume that if I do not recognize the number you are supposed to be smarted than me? O.K., try these (all in standard SI units):
8.854x10E-12
6.626x10E-34
299792458
12.56x10E-7
0.529x10E-10
6.644x10E-27
-928.4x10E-26
9.109x10E-31
96485
1.38010E-23
Riddle me that, batman! If you actually know these, I grant you are at least as well educated as me (as if you care).
P.S. No cheating you googling bastards!
I like pi.
Permittivity constant = 8.854x10E-12
Planck’s constant = 6.626x10E-34
The speed of light = 299792458
Permeability constant = 12.56x10E-7
Bohr radius = 0.529x10E-10
Electron Mass = 9.109x10E-31
Faraday constant = 96485
Boltzman’s constant = 1.38010E-23
And you got me on these two:
6.644x10E-27
-928.4x10E-26
The point of the 6.02x10^23 is just used because it’s an extremely large number in addition to being a number that every ninth-grade science student knows.
e^:rolleyes:
I have to say that this is the most amusing topic for a Pit thread I’ve seen in a while. 
Though, I have to ask–you say you’re well educated, yet you imply you didn’t know Avogadro’s number at the top. (No high-handedness from me; I barely remember my high school Chem class myself.) Still, you know what it is. Are you sticking up for the Avogadro-deprived posters of this board? Or did you have to google for it to find out what it is?

I don’t know the answer, but I do remember that back in high school when I did know it, there was a picture of Avogadro in the text book. We took one look at it and knew instantly that he was the kind of person who would come up with a weird number like that.
I don’t know constants, but I know vB coding…

I like pi on a planck.
Best! Pie post! EVER!
bowing before lieu
Sorry. I know what Avigadro’s number is, being the number of atoms in a gram mole of a compound. I just seemed a little elitist to include in a post, i.e. your second choise, sticking up for the innumerate. BTW, I did not mean to offend anyone.
Damn vb Elitist
We had that same picture of Avogadro in our Chemistry textbook.
And we had a photo of Ernest Rutherford that made him look like Cliff Claven from Cheers…honestly.
Now we know who the mole is.
What Avogadro’s Number rolling-eyes smiley?!
Probably 6.022 x 10[sup]23[/sup] :rolleyes:'s.
more numbers for you to memorize and recite to impress your friends
Did you know that the total number of possible chess games is greater than one estimate of the number of particles in the universe?
The missing two:
6.644 x 10[sup]-27[/sup] kg is the mass of a Helium atom.
9.284 x 10[sup]-24[/sup] J/T is the magnetic moment of an electron.
Bugger THAT…who the hell is Avogadro, and why does he have the privilege of a number next to his name?
Signed: kambuckta…a social-sciences major, who wouldn’t know a ‘constant’ if she tripped over one on the way to the pub.
You’re not so bad, yourself.
:rimshot:
I dunno 'bout that. If you tripped over the same one every night, you might eventually get suspicious. . .
