> The electron cloud model says that we cannot know exactly where an electron is at any given time, but the electrons are more likely to be in specific areas.

- me_me_me 3y agosay that you never talked to a child or young teen without saying it How is that a simplification? and do you really think their eyes would not glaze over as they start daydreaming about icecream as you talk.
- sillysaurusx 3y agoMine wouldn’t’ve. And you could say the same about math, which thankfully can’t be simplified to the point of lies.
- yjftsjthsd-h 3y ago> math, which thankfully can’t be simplified to the point of lies. Er, at least by the standards being thrown around in this thread it absolutely can be and regularly is. You can't have less than zero of something, it only makes sense to take the root of a positive number, any time we avoid generalizing the area under a curve or rates of change because calculus won't come up for a few years...
- me_me_me 3y agohow about actually trying it instead of supposing it would work. How old are yours kids?
