Halliday, Resnick & Walker β Measurement: Problem 28
A mole of atoms is \(6.02 \times 10^{23}\) atoms. To the nearest order of magnitude, how many moles of atoms are in a large domestic cat? The masses of a hydrogen atom, an oxygen atom, and a carbon atom are \(1.0 \text{ u}\), \(16 \text{ u}\), and \(12 \text{ u}\), respectively. (Hint: Cats are sometimes known to kill a mole.)
