Matter and Measurement

In the universe, there is matter, energy, and void space. The universe contains energy and void space. The definition of matter can be considered as something which possesses mass and consumes space. Chemistry is that branch of science which deals with the study of matter. Under chemistry, nature, composition, and the changes occurring to matter are discussed.

How many kilometers should the car be able to drive on city streets on 1.7 liters of gasoline? (Note: 1 mile = 1.609 km, 1 gallon = 3.78541 L)
A certain sample of coal contains 1.60 percent sulfur by mass. When the coal is burned, the sulfur is converted to sulfur dioxide. To prevent air pollution, this sulfur dioxide is treated with calcium oxide (CaO) to form calcium sulfite (CaSO3). Calculate the daily mass (in kilograms) of CaO needed by a power plant that uses 7.60 10° kg of coal per day. Enter your answer in scientific notation.
The FDA recommends that women who are pregnant avoid eating more than three 6.00 oz servings of bluefish per month because of the relatively high mercury levels in that type of fish. If bluefish contains 0.303 ppm of mercury (that is, 0.303 oz of mercury per 1 × 106 oz of fish), how many ounces of mercury would a pregnant woman consume in a month if she ate the maximum recommended amount of bluefish? ounces of mercury: OZ
Radiation exposure to human beings is usually given in rems (radiation equivalent for man). In SI units, the exposure is measured in sieverts (Sv). One rem equals 0.0100 Sv. At one time, the exposure due to the nuclear reactors in Japan was measured to be 8217 mSv/h. How many rems would a person exposed to the radiation for 35 min have absorbed? If one mammogram gives off 0.30 rems, how many mammograms would that exposure be equivalent to?

In the opening scene of the movie Raiders of the Lost Ark, Indiana Jones tries to remove a gold idol from a booby-trapped pedestal. In an effort to remove the idol without tripping the trap, he replaces the idol with a bag of sand of approximately equal volume. The density of gold is 19.32 g/mL and the density of sand is about 3 g/mL. A) If the idol had a volume of 1.5 L, what volume of sand would be required to provide the same mass as the same sized idol made of gold? B) In a later scene, Indy and an unscrupulous guide play catch with the idol. Assume that the volume of the idol is about 1.5 L. If it were made of solid gold, how many pounds (lb) would it weigh?
