Question
Chapter 2, Problem 17Q
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
Dry ice is solid carbon dioxide. This carbon dioxide has to be represented in symbolic, particulate, and macroscopic ways.
Concept introduction:
Greenhouse gases are one type of gas which traps the heat within the system and thus it increases the overall temperature of the earth resulting global warming.
Examples:
In symbolic representation, chemical formula can be used.
In particulate representation for a chemical compound, the elements in the compound are indicated using spheres and they are arranged in accordance with the intermolecular forces.

- Cloth can be waterproofed by coating it with a silicone layer. This is done by exposing the cloth to (CH3)2SiCl2 vapor. The silicon compound reacts with OH groups on the doth to form a waterproofing film (density = 1.0 g/cm3) of [(CH3)2SiO]n, where n is a large integer number. n (CH3)2SiCl2 + 2n OH 2n Cl + n H2O + [(CH3)2SiO]n The coating is added layer by layer, with each layer of [(CH3)2SiO]n being 0.60 nm thick.
