Question

How much money, in dollars, does one mole of nickels represent? If this amount of money were evenly distributed among the entire world's population (about 7.1 billion people), how much would each person get?

Answer 1

Well one mole of nickels is 6x10^23 or 3x10^24 cents. To make this in dollars, divide by 100 or lower the exponent by two and get 3x10^22. 7.1 billion is the same as 7.1x10^9 so take 3x10^22 divided by 7.1x10^9 and get 4x10^14 which is $400,000,000,000,000 per person. Someone please correct me if I'm wrong :)
