Question
Chapter 6, Problem 73E
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
The statement “inability of scientists to formulate a viable theory on how life began shows that life happened miraculously” is to be commented and “the perspective when a viable theory is formulated” is to be analyzed.
Concept Introduction:
The theory of vitalism is a belief that non-living species are different from living organisms, as living organisms consist of non-physical elements.

3. According to a theory, how does organic chemistry started from the big bang?
What are the difference and similarities between "organic food/farming" and "organic chemistry"?
1) Despite the radical increase in the use of plastics over the last few decades, the mass of plastics at landfills stayed pretty much the same. Which statement explains this contradicting phenomenon?
a) The mass of plastic at landfills has not changed because there are less plastic products on the market.
b) The mass of plastic at landfills has not changed because the population is increasing.
c) The mass of plastic at landfills has not changed because of light weighting, which reduces the mass of plastic in a container.

This is the story of three plastic bottles, empty and discarded. Their journeys are about to diverge with outcomes that impact nothing less than the fate of the planet. But they weren't always this way. To understand where these bottles end up, we must first explore their origins. The heroes of our story were conceived in this oil refinery. The plastic in their bodies was formed by chemically bonding oil and gas molecules together to make monomers. In turn, these monomers were bonded into long polymer chains to make plastic in the form of millions of pellets. Those were melted at manufacturing plants and reformed in molds to create the resilient material that makes up the triplets' bodies. Machines filled the bottles with sweet bubbly liquid and they were then wrapped, shipped, bought, opened, consumed and unceremoniously discarded.
