The white stuff we know as sugar is sucrose, a molecule composed of 12 atoms of carbon, 22 atoms of hydrogen, and 11 atoms of oxygen (C12H22O11). Like all compounds made from these three elements, sugar is a carbohydrate.

You are right that a piece of paper consists of many billions of atoms, mostly carbon, oxygen and hydrogen. Burning paper is a chemical reaction. Essentially, the C, O and H atoms within the paper combine with atmospheric oxygen to produce mainly water and carbon dioxide.

445,455 atoms

Thus, paper is made mostly out of organic compounds: that is carbon, hydrogen and oxygen (C, H and O). Paper also contains non organic materials to improve its properties. These may be chalk (CaCO3) and kaolin clay (Al2Si2O5(OH)4).

Here’s a stab at the problem with numerous assumptions. With these assumptions I calculate about 10.21 quintillion atoms per bit of information in a 400 page paperback book.

Atoms are extremely small, typically around 100 picometers across. They are so small that accurately predicting their behavior using classical physics—as if they were tennis balls, for example—is not possible due to quantum effects. Every atom is composed of a nucleus and one or more electrons bound to the nucleus.

Thickness of the graphite layer: Volume / Surf. Area = 31.4 nanometers. Size of a (carbon) atom: 0.22nm (error: 10%) Thickness of the layer: 31.4nm/0.22nm = 142 carbon atoms.

Therefore you have 1.2*10^21 C atoms in your signature. Graphite has hexagonal parallel planes. In a hexagonal structure, the carbon atom has three bonds.

Determine mass of chalk stick after writing name. Therefore you have 1.2*10^21 C atoms in your signature.

So… 10^27 atoms in an apple …

Short Answer. There are approximately 7 x 1027 atoms in the average human body. This is the estimate for a 70 kg adult human male. Generally, a smaller person would contain fewer atoms; a larger person would contain more atoms.

Using 1 inch = 2.54 centimeters, we get that 25.4 billion hydrogen atoms would make 1 inch.

Originally Answered: Can an atom die? Atoms are not alive, so you should not use the word “die”, even if it gets destroyed. A radioactive atom can decay into a different atom plus some particles like an alpha particle, or an electron, or a positron, and a neutrino or antineutrino.

atoms in a drop of water = 3 atoms/molecule x 1.67 x 1021 molecules. atoms in a drop of water = 5.01 x 1021 atoms.

The value of the mole is equal to the number of atoms in exactly 12 grams of pure carbon-12. 12.00 g C-12 = 1 mol C-12 atoms = 6.022 × 1023 atoms • The number of particles in 1 mole is called Avogadro’s Number (6.0221421 x 1023).

To determine the number of hydrogen atoms, divide the mass of ethanol by its molar mass to get moles of ethanol. Multiply this by six atoms of hydrogen per molecule of ethanol and by Avogadro’s number to get the number of hydrogen atoms.

Now, in two moles of H2, 12.044 × 10^(23) molecules are present and in 1 molecule of H2, two H atoms are present. As we know 1mole of any element has 1NA molecule. And 1NA=6.022*10′23 atom.

To convert from moles to atoms, multiply the molar amount by Avogadro’s number. To convert from atoms to moles, divide the atom amount by Avogadro’s number (or multiply by its reciprocal).

Sulfuric Acid, H2SO4 is a chemical compound made up of two hydrogen atom, one sulfer atom, and four oxygen atoms.

Sulfuric acid (American spelling) or sulphuric acid (Commonwealth spelling), also known as oil of vitriol, is a mineral acid composed of the elements sulfur, oxygen and hydrogen, with the molecular formula H2SO4.

Sulfuric acid is prepared industrially by the reaction of water with sulfur trioxide (see sulfur oxide), which in turn is made by chemical combination of sulfur dioxide and oxygen either by the contact process or the chamber process.
