Ignoring trace elements, a typical elemental composition (by mass) of the human body is as follows:
10.5 % H
66.3 % O
19.9 % C
3.3 % N
Use these percentages, the molar mass values, Avogadro's number, and the atomic numbers to determine the total number of electrons (and protons) in a 73-kg human body (160 pounds).
If these electrons and protons were placed 100 m apart (the distance of approximately one football field), then what would be the force of electrical attraction between them.
A sample of copper has a mass of 10.68 g when measured in air. It has a mass of 9.47 g when measured in water.
Answer these three questions:
How many atoms are in the sample?
What is the simple volume of the space including and surrounding each atom? Assume the atoms are evenly distributed throughout the sample. That is no FCC, BCC, or HCP crystal structure.
What is the diameter of each atom?

He asks, "Why would atoms bond into solids rather than just floating freely with respect to each other?" To help him understand at least one type of bonding in solids, you decide to embark on an energy explanation. You show him a drawing of a primitive cell of a sodium chloride crystal, NaCl, or simple table salt. The drawing is shown in the figure below, where the orange spheres are Na+ ions and the blue spheres are Cl− ions. Each ion has a charge of magnitude equal to the elementary charge e. The ions lie on the corners of a cube of side d. You explain to your roommate that the electrical potential energy is defined as zero when all eight charges are infinitely far apart from each other. Then you bring them together to form the crystal structure shown. a) Evaluate the electric potential energy of the crystal as shown.arrow_forward
