A carbon atom, with a half-full outer shell of electrons—four in a shell that can hold eight—readily shares its electrons with other atoms and forms a vast number of molecules, many of which are the organic molecules that form the bulk of living matter. Looking at the periodic table, what other element do you think might play a role like carbon in life forms on some other planet?
What is the mass of 3.0 moles of hydrogen molecules, H2? (atomic mass of H = 1 u)
Look for at least two (2) natural elements in your household. Briefly discuss the mathematical concepts you observed in them.
