Actual mass of a neutron = 1.67 x 10^-24

Funnily enough these also represent how I felt looking at my grades this morning :)

SCIENTIFIC NOTATION is a standardized method of representing EXTREMELY LARGE or EXTREMELY SMALL NUMBERS in simple EXPONENTIAL TERMS that are written as the PRODUCT of a REAL NUMBER and a POWER of 10. The COEFFICIENT is defined as a non-zero INTEGER that represents a NUMERICAL VALUE, typically with respect to the NUMBER of SIGNIFICANT FIGURES in the problem. POSTIVE VALUES in the EXPONENT place represent how many ZEROES there are in the number being represented. NEGATIVE VALUES in the EXPONENT place represent how many ZEROES there are between the NUMBER and the DECIMAL PLACE. Note that the STANDARD POSITION for the DECIMAL PLACE is always just to the RIGHT of the first NON-ZERO digit in the number. Also, it is the first NON-ZERO digit counting from the LEFT of the NUMBER. . . . . . . . . . . . . . #scientificnotation #chemistry #science #physics #significantfigures #feexam #feexamprep #eit #eitexam #eitprep #eitin2017 #prepineer #engineerintrainingexam (at Burns & McDonnell)

this link was part of my summer chemistry prep course for college and I think it's the coolest thing ever. it has soothing music as you explore objects in our world and its comparative size to the universe (just ignore how childish some of the descriptions seem). i especially like the description for a water molecule
