Denník z USA (deň 57) - Pesnička o Avogadrovej konštante
Toto číslo mi bolo veľmi dobre známe už pred príchodom sem.
6,022x10^23 (šesť celých nula dvadsaťdva krát desať na dvadsiatu tretiu ALEBO six point oh two two times ten to the twenty-third). Ako ste si mohli všimnúť, anglická verzia je hotovým literárnym dielom, aliterácia s takým množstvom T je naozaj obdivuhodná, i keď mi tým pádom robí celkom veľký problém toto číslo vysloviť.
Američania vkladajú oveľa viac úsilia do toho, aby sa študenti toto číslo naučili. Napísali sme si ho preto 25x pod seba do zošita. A nielen to. Chcú, aby sme ho aj pochopili. Majú o tomto čísle dokonca i pesničku.
Všetko sa to zbehlo tak rýchlo. Mrs. Brownell (00:32) premietla na plátno text, zavolala do triedy druhého science učiteľa, mr. Fry-a, ktorý pochytil gitaru a začal spievať. A Mole Is a Unit (kurzívou označené sa vo videu nenachádza)
A mole is an an animal that burrows in the ground,
Or the spot on your chin that you gotta shave around.
But there´s another kind of mole of interest to me,
That´s the kind of mole they use in chemistry.
Chorus: A mole is a unit, or have you heard,
containing six times ten to the twenty-third,
That´s a six with twenty-three zeros at the end,
Much too big a number to comprehend.
Say you had a mole of pennies to distribute ´round the world,
Give to each of the five billion grownups, boys, and girls,
There wouldn´t he a single soul down and out of luck,
Cause everybody in the world would get a trillion bucks.
Or Say you had a mole of paper and stacked it toward the sky,
Paper´s awful thin, but that pile would get so high,
It´d reach up into outer space, in fact I think you´d find,
It´d go up to the moon and back, eighty billion times.
Chorus: A mole is a unit, or have you heard,
containing six times ten to the twenty-third,
That´s a six with twenty-three zeros at the end,
Much too big a number to comprehend.
Suppose a mole of marshmallows fell upon the planet,
Over each square inch of land and sea, think that you could stand
it? That layer would be twelve miles high and of course block out the sun,
We´re talking close to five million trillion tons.
Well, maybe we could save ourselves if we all started eatin´,
One marshmallow each second, not two ´cause that´d be cheatin´.
With five billion people munching, how long do you think it´d take?
Forty million years and that´s without a bathroom break.
Chorus: A mole is a unit, or have you heard,
containing six times ten to the twenty-third,
That´s a six with twenty-three zeros at the end,
Much too big a number to comprehend.
But say you had a mole of atoms, would the pile be immense,
Should I say the answer now, or leave you in suspense?
Well, atoms are so very, very small, you understand,
You could hold a mole of atoms in the palm of your hand.
So shake a little sugar in the middle of your palm
Now you don´t want to spill it, so try and stay calm.
You hardly can imagine and barely realize,
There´s more atoms in that sugar than stars up in the sky.
Mól je proste veľké číslo
