ok so i get a mole is 602 with 21 zero's, but whats with the 8 oz cups, that makes no sense what so ever im confuzzled lol
 
im sorry i thought i was being straight forward! kind of ruined the randomness of the fact eh? basically, if you took an 8 oz measuring cup and started emptying the pacific ocean, you would have to do it 602 000 000 000 000 000 000 000 times
 
Diamonds are so sparkly because of the way they are cut and their high index of refraction (approx. 2.42). Roughly 1/2 of the diamond (the top) is cut in many different styles, the bottom 2/3 of the diamond is cut to meet at one point. This shape allows light to enter at any side of the diamond at almost any angle but allows light to only exit via the crown.

Because of a diamond's high index of refraction, its critical angle if extremely low (24.5 degrees). This means that any light attempting to exit the diamond at any angle greater than 24.5 degrees will be totally internally reflected. Sparkle sparkle!

So, if anyone asks, you can give this basic explanation! Correct me if I'm wrong, it's 12:00 am XD
