Protons — Some Scientific Information and Guess How Many Protons a 150# Person Has?

An Awesome Discussion with Advanced Google Gemini

I want to get at a fundamental truth if possible. So, can we discuss protons?

Absolutely, let’s dive into the world of protons! It’s a fascinating topic that gets at some of the fundamental building blocks of our universe.

What are Protons?

At the most basic level, protons are subatomic particles. They reside within the nucleus of an atom, along with neutrons. Protons carry a positive electrical charge, and this charge is equal in magnitude but opposite in sign to the charge of an electron. The number of protons within an atom’s nucleus determines what element that atom is. For example, all atoms with one proton are hydrogen atoms, all atoms with two protons are helium atoms, and so on.

Key Properties of Protons:

• Charge: Positive (+1 elementary charge)
• Mass: Approximately 1 atomic mass unit (amu)
• Composition: Protons are made up of even smaller particles called quarks. Specifically, they consist of two “up” quarks and one “down” quark.
• Stability: Protons are generally…
