Formula mass for NaHCO3 = 23 + 1 + 12 + (3x16) = 84

1 mole of NaHCO3 = 84 grams NaHCO3

10000g NaHCO3 x 1 mol NaHCO3 / 84g NaHCO3 = 119 moles

119 moles NaHCO3 x 6.023x10^23 molecules NaHCO3/1 mole NaHCO3 = 7.167 x 10^25 molecules NaHCO3

7.167x10^25 molecules x 6 atoms/molecule = 4.3 x 10^26 atoms

*Shudder* Not sure if I did that right but that's the most chemistry I've done since I dropped Biology as my major two years ago because of organic chem... :cry:


So thats 119 moles of baking soda per 10kg of baking soda, which is 7.167x10^25 molecules of NaHCO3. Na has 11 electrons, H 1e, C 6e, and O 8e. 11+1+6+8*3 = 42e per molecule, which is 3x10^27 electrons in 10kg of baking soda.

Quarks are a bit more fun. Na has 23 nucleons, H 1, C 12, and O 16. Thats 23 + 1 + 12 + 16*3 = 84 nucleons * 3 quarks each = 252 quarks per molecule, which is 1.8x10^28 quarks in 10kg of baking soda

That is not the Phazon Suit (I have the game and guide so it was an easy check), but still cool. Point given and the request for a Phazon-proof Samus is still open.

Get your Sharpies ready for chief-ing.

Pika has a special coming in a few hours. I know you like him so two deals can be made: 1 - change your attacker for this attack, or 2 - I'll cancel this move, and you'll hold off for about 8 hours and use Pika then. I await your decision. (Note: first one will be assumed until further notice).

Fri Feb 17, 2006 2:17 am

I'll just go with it and change the character to Peach doing the killing.
