I wore a winter boots every day for two years.
I hate climbing trees. I'm Deborah Goldstein, host of the podcast The Big Fib and half of those statements were indeed Fibs!
On every episode of The Big Fib, we bring on two grown-ups.
One is an expert and the other is a liar, and it's the job of our human child contestant to help us figure out who is who, because no one can spot a liar better than a kid.
We've had episodes on everything from Minecraft to Mythology and from LEGO to Libraries!
Join me and my robot co-host Lisa on The Big Fib on Apple Podcasts or on GZMshows.com.
Hello, Smarty Pants! Welcome to Trusty Trivia Thursday.
Today we're zooming in on the tiniest building blocks of atoms!
Before we begin, I want to give a long-distance shout-out to Rory in Great Easton, Essex, England!
We're so glad to hear you love listening to Who Smarted for all the fun and wild facts every week.
Even better, we're happy to hear that we always make you laugh and that we give you fun things to share with your friends at school.
Happy Smarting, Rory! And now let's split into some questions about atoms.
First question. What is the center of an atom called?
Is it A, the nucleus? B, the core?
Or C, the yolk? Going with A?
Absolutely correct. The nucleus is at the center of an atom.
Next question. Which particle in an atom has a negative charge?
Is it A, the proton? B, a neutron?
Or C, an electron? Choosing C, spot on?
Hides have a negative charge and orbit the nucleus.
Last question. What is the smallest atom?
Is it A, oxygen? B, hydrogen?
Or C, carbon? Did you pick B?
That's exactly right. Hydrogen is the smallest and simplest atom.
Atomic success, smarty pants, you've proven you're positively charged with knowledge.
Be sure to join me next Thursday for more fascinating facts and fun.
