Excellent science quiz, really taxed my knowledge and memory from high school and college ... which was decades ago. I'm very happy with my 88/100 score.

[@torfrida6663]

88/100 which is not bad for an old artist whose last science lesson was 1962!!! Enjoyed that, but must admit to some inspired guesses. 🇬🇧👍

I always feel smarter after watching. Sometimes it's good enough to say I understand the question, even if I don't know the answer.😛

solid, liquid, gas and plasma....height, length, width, and time. Missed 4 of the questions. I really enjoy the science quizzes. Thanks Ben, for the best quizzes on youtube. You are meticulous in your presentation and correctness of answers. Please know that all your time and hard work does not go unnoticed and is always appreciated.😊👍

Awesome, thank you!

[@danielklopp7007]

Actually, the 4 phases of matter are solid, liquid, gas, and supercritical fluid (but don't feel bad, everyone except physical chemists usually gets this wrong). The phases of matter can be shown on a temperature vs. pressure graph; there is no combination of temperature and pressure (in a fixed volume) that can produce a plasma - plasma is simply an ionized gas.

[@kathysampson826]

Got 4 wrong! Excellent quizz!

How dare you!... I'm kidding of course, it's all in good fun, thanks for making these. I learnt some things, the most interesting of which were the conductivity of silver, dew, and free expansion of gases.

89/100. I think most of us who would even be interested in taking the test to begin with are probably science nerds anyway. BTW, I'm currently reading the book the movie Oppenheimer is based on. Excellent insight into quite a few of the giants of the time. Imagine what it would be like to have a beer with Bohr or Einstein or Schroedinger.

Fun fact for #23; Becquerel, just like Hertz, describes the frequency of what it measures. Hz measures the frequency of events or cycles that happen per second, whereas Bq measures the average frequency of the answer per second.

[@megnotes7908]

I figured I wouldn’t do well, so I didn’t keep count. I’m blown away by how many I got right! And so many of my correct choices were from trusting my gut; forgotten knowledge stored in the convolutions of my brain, perhaps? Three correct answers were sheer dumb luck on stuff I’d never heard of before. Very fun quiz - I learned a lot! Thank you.

86/100 There were some easy ones thrown in, but I would that one as difficult

[@Unknownentityfeline]

98/100 and one I guessed at. Not a great achievement because I love science and I probably read more in this category than Joe Average. I did find many of these questions too basic to be included under the title of this video. The reason I did this quiz was that I was expecting some really difficult questions, which never happened and the reason for my two mistakes were that I just didn't know the correct answer, not that the questions themselves involved the need for complex thought or calculation. Still, it was fun, so thank you!!

[@breadfan7433]

Like last time, I was aiming for 90. Last time I had gotten 89. On the last question, I knew well that bananas are rich in potassium, but I thought, "well, potassium is not radioactive", so I picked radium even though it seemed weird. Completely forgot about isotopes... I knew I had about 10 wrong answers so far, and I thought "oh, no, please don't let it be 89 again". I anxiously counted the X's on my list, turns out I had 9 wrong answers so far, so I got exactly 90. I know this is silly. After all, we find multiples of 10 significant only because we have 10 fingers. And yet, I'm so happy right now. Thank you again, that was so much fun.

[@tonychinnery]

Most of these were pretty basic. However I did get five wrong (a few educated guesses). I've never heard of that pyramid thing.

[@wayneyadams]

Question 17. It isn't really white light, it is still red, green, and blue, but our eyes see it as white because it activates the three color cones in our eyes, red, green, and blue equally. Question 79. The two moons of mars are named Phobos meaning fear, and Deimos meaning demon, both apt names for the Roman god of war. The Greek god of war is Ares. Question 80. Aqua regia literally means royal water because of its ability to dissolve Gold. Question 82. The actual experiments carried out by Pavlov were brutal and inhumane, and today would be considered animal abuse. He didn't just ring bells and watch dogs salivate.

[@samc9516]

This is true, but in that sense there is no such thing as white light at all because there isn't a white wavelength. We define white light as we perceive a specific mixture of wavelengths.

[@wayneyadams]

@@samc9516 That is correct, there is no white light. In fact, the idea of color is a human invention, to the universe there are just various wavelengths of electromagnetic waves, none more special than any other. I used to do light demonstration with my Physics students. I would shine a yellow light from an LCD projector on the screen and have the students look at it through hand-held spectroscopes, and they would see just red and green with no yellow. I then projected light from a projector through a yellow filter, and they saw yellow in their spectroscopes. It illustrated the way we perceive colors which is nothing more than a combination of red, green, and blue.

[@yvesboutin5604]

Hi ! this was great fun ! In reading the commentaries, I wonder why nobody detected the error in question 39 about the gyroscope. In a cellphone, a droplet of mercury shift places in a tiny receptacle lined with electrical contacts thus detecting the motion and orientation of the cellphone. Gyroscope are bigger and help in stabilisation of planes and rockets and also on submarines and torpedos. I have to admit, I have a few lucky guesses and I learned a few things also and this is the most important point of this video. Thanks a lot!

[@Quizzes4U]

Thanks. Glad you enjoyed it. Question 39 is correct. There's a lot of information online about the types and use of gyroscopes in smart phones. Thanks for commenting. 😁

[@ivancho5854]

Question 38. What is most commonly used in radiation shielding material. This reminded me of a funny incident from my past. A junior medical student was told to put on the shielding under their scrubs and then observe the procedure (which used radiation). The procedure thankfully wasn't long, because by the end he nearly collapsed. Instead of putting on one radiation body shield, which was quite heavy, he had put on six. He had assumed that the rack full of shields was one shield. 😂 All the best everyone.

[@robertmegee9052]

The double slit experiment for light proves that light is a wave not both. It's the photo electric effect that proves that light is a particle.

[@benthomas9830]

Yeah I would have put just a wave for that one aswell. Still I can see where he is coming from because the single slit experiment does indeed demonstrate particle like behaviour. However as the question asked sepcifically about the double slit experiment it would not be correct to say it shows electrons exhibiting particle like behaviour.

[@scibear9944]

Disagree. When photons are put through one at a time, each detection can be traced back to one slit or the other but not both, which is particle behavior. En masse the diffraction pattern results, which is wave behavior. There is still no satisfactory explanation for the dual nature of light (or other particles like electrons and even atoms moving at high speeds).

The important part of any "quiz" is whether or not you know how to look the answer up. Whether we can apply knowledge to a practical situation. Everyday work for example. Knowing the terminology is good, but do we have the ability to apply our knowledge, our intuition, to life is the bottom line for me. There are plenty of people who can ace a quiz like this and have zero skill to make it work.

This is so ridicuosly unlikely.

Before the mathmeticians come after me, I am very awear this is s a rather crude approximation that doesn't factor in some of the other variables and a more exact probability calculation.
