How to discuss religion with believers?

[Drich]

 no.. sorry sport.. here we 'proof our work by providing references and support material we don't pretend to just know otherwise you can be made the fool when someone asks for supporting material or simply provides the material they have that blows you out of the water.

Yes a mol of air is  28.9647 g/mol.

but let say the atomic weight for a single molecule of air is 30.0000u for simple math sake

as the atomic weight of oxy is 15.9999u

atomic weight of an atom of nitrogen is: 14.0067 u

( which also leaves room for argon and the other stuff)

but the atomic weight of gold is a little bit heavier.. little bit because we are dealing with atomic weight, but apples to apples it is a hellva lot heavier.

Au=196.9665690 u

can you see that three atoms that roughly make up air (remember we cheated and rounded up to 30) is far lighter than just one ATOM of gold. if fact 30 air molecules of air a needed or 90 atoms of the three primary air components are needed to equate the density of just 1 gold atom. That means in mass there is a 90:1 ratio needed of air to just one unit of gold..

I think you need to do your division again here. One atom of gold would correspond to about 6-7 'molecules of 'air', not 30 or 90. Let's be generous and use the 7:1 ratio.

Meaning if you want one ton of gold you have to convert 90 tons of oxy nitrogen and Argon..


Now let put your small box mind that could not understand this simple equation but call me stupid inside your house or building at work when you challenge God to do this. and he says sure let us show this monkey man who and what God is despite what others may have to go through.. and turn air into a ton of gold..

Now..
Riddle me this, does the whole of your house contain enough volume of aire to satifify the 90 to 1 ratio of air needed? Meaning if I pull a hard vacuum on your house (30hg)could i displace 90 tons of the atoms needed for your request???

What if God kept your house sealed and from implosion. because truly as you missed my point before You have no way of making sure air was being converted into gold otherwise.. I in slight of hand could turn air into gold. The only way you could see or know a atomic change was happening is if you were caught up in said vacuum.. Which would ironically (as your last breath was being pulled from your lungs) be the proof you needed lest the whole 'test' be for nothing.

So quick to flash your flare you missed the whole point completely.

Well, shall we compute? One mole of gas at standard temperature and pressure occupies a volume of .0224 cubic meters. So a cubic meter of gas has 1/.0224 = 44.5 moles of gas, which in the case of air is 29*44.5 grams, which is about 1300 grams, or 1.3 kilograms (just under 3 pounds).

Now, what is the volume of air in a typical house? Well, If we assume a 2000 square foot floor plan and 10 ft ceilings, that makes for about 566 cubic meters, so the mass of air in such a house would be about 1.3*566, or about 750 kilograms.
So, yes, this is under a ton. It would take a largish house to have a ton of air in it. 15 foot ceilings and 2000 square feet would be plenty, though.

Most people are surprised by how much the mass of air actually is in even fairly small volumes. Ordinary rooms can have hundreds of pounds of air.

here's where your confusion is in the conversion of mols to atoms. The point of the conversation was to witness God Change air to gold on a atomic level, so rather than convert I used the atomic weight of the atoms themselves. So to make a ton of gold even at a 7:1 ratio (your numbers not mine) you need 7 tons of air, as by your numbers gold is 7 times heavier than air. 

The point is it takes a larger than a 1:1 exchange to make gold from air. you will need way way more air molecules of air to make one u of gold. so if you had a ton of air in your house you are 6 tons short of making one ton of gold using your numbers.

You guys kill me. you make yourself look stupid for the sake of trying to show me up on a math issue when you miss the whole point of the problem, and screw up your own solution.
