Reminder that atoms are why our phones are so thick

Reminder that atoms are why our phones are so thick

You mean electrons? If we only use neutrons and some protons, our phones would be alot thinner

Atoms must have electrons in order to be considered atoms.

>not having a phone with event horizon
fucking poorfags

explain hydrogen ion then

That's just a proton. No longer an atom.

Not same guy but it's always referred to as a proton not hydrogen ion. The latter is just unnecessarily confusing.

*Cation
Just called a proton.

What if we build it from antimatter?

Atoms is why your mom is so THICK

That would just switch the charges around. Electrons would be positively charged and protons negatively.

>not using quark-gluon
Enjoy your bloat atom fags

If we just rotated most of the phone into 4-space it wouldn't be so thick

>He's using the outdated Bohr model
Are you also still using floppy disks and a CRT monitor? Get with the times.

If you squashed all that empty space out of the atom, if you reduced the diameter of an atom by a few orders of magnitude, then your phone would be able to be a few order of magnitude thinner. If your phone was a few orders of magnitude thinner, it would be so razor thin that it would just cut through your pant pocket while you were walking and fall into your thigh and cut that up too and cut through your shoe and cut your big toe off. You want that OP?

What do you mean by 'empty space [...] of the atom'?

Atoms are all empty space. Sub atomic particles are mathematical points.

Yeah, so if you'd 'squashed all that empty space out of the atom' you'd be left with no volume.

wtf i hate atoms now

No, particles do have a volume. Math just tends to oversimplify things.

>not constructing a phone out of merely potential particles

Bohr is out? I didn't even get the memo. Please enlighten us user.

That still just shows the probability of where the electrons might be. Its still a huge empty space

Bohr Model is outdated, yes. We use quantum mechanics now. Electrons are not described as hard spheres flying around the nucleus, but as probability density. The characteristic shapes are called 'orbitals'. See

Actually the particals themselves have no volume, only the fields they interact with

>shows the probability of where the electrons might be
Probability DENSITY.
And the electron is not at one specific point (uncertainty, etc.). It's delocalized. You can say that it's at all these points at once, though not with the same density.
