Combining one atom of carbon with two atoms of oxygen produces one molecule of
carbon dioxide, along with 6.5 x 10-19 J of energy. In 2019, the United States
burned enough coal to supply 1.1 x 1019 J of energy. Assuming that coal is roughly
100% carbon, how many molecules of carbon dioxide did the U.S. produce by
burning coal in 2019?
Less than 1036 molecules of carbon dioxide.
Between 1036 and 1038 molecules of carbon dioxide.
Between 1038 and 1040 molecules of carbon dioxide.
More than 1040 molecules of carbon dioxide.
About two centuries ago, Benjamin Franklin showed that 1teaspoon of oil would cover about 0.5 acre of still water. If you know that 1.0 x 104 m2= 2.47 acres and that there is approximately 5 cm3 in a teaspoon, what is the thickness of the 0.5-acre layer of oil? How might this thickness be related to the sizes of molecules?
An instrument used to detect metals in drinking water can detect as little as 1 μg of mercury in 1 L of water. Mercury is a toxic metal; it accumulates in the body and is responsible for the deterioration of brain cells. Calculate the number of mercury atoms you would consume if you drank 1 L of water that contained 1 μg of mercury. (The mass of one mercury atom is 3.3 × 10−22 g.)
