Chapter 2, Problem 2.122IME
One technique proposed for recycling plastic grocery bags is to heat them at 700°C and high pressure to form carbon microspheres that can be used in a number of applications. Electron microscopy shows some representative carbon microspheres obtained in this manner, where the scale is given in the bottom right corner of the figure. Determine the number of carbon atoms in a typical carbon microsphere.

H₂O has a higher boiling point than NaCl because H₂O can form the relatively strong hydrogen bonding intermolecular forces. Cl₂ has a higher boiling point than NaCl because Cl₂ will have the stronger London dispersion forces. H₂O has the strongest London dispersion forces of all these compounds. IBr has the strongest ionic forces of all these compounds.
