A Coca Cola in the ocean
Hi random question
I am writing about an art work's results *which are still not yet clear* and I want to make a comparison to the coca cola in the ocean but i forgot the fact something along the lines that if you were to pour one cola in the ocean, its traces would reach up to 8 square miles has anyone heard this and know the proper statistic? thanks! |

a serious question..does this theory apply to pissing in the ocean too?

Facts your question is missing:
What size coke? What time period are you allowing? What concentration level are we talking about? A 1-liter bottle of coke hase 55 moles (approximately--I am assuming it is all water, which isn't far from the truth) in it...which is 3.32*10^25 molecules The volume of all of the world's oceans is approximately 1.38 billion cubic kilometers, or 1.38*10^24 dif cubic centimeters. This means that given enough time to diffuse, there would eventually be 30 moleculees that used to be in your coke bottle (at that concentration I'd hesitate to call it 'coke') in every cubic centimeter of water in every ocean in the entire world!

twistedmosaic - so answer my question then. ive definately pissed more than a litre in the ocean. why dont you calculate a litre for every person in the world, and throw some numbers back at me.
my chemistry days are well and truely over

Has dlish drank the coke, peed back into the bottle, then decanted the bottle into the ocean?
Actually, I watched a program that followed the patterns and paths of water melt in glaciers. A particular die was poured into open water at the top of the glacier and then a colour reading machine took samples from different streams and rivers beneath the glacier. A reading of the specific die molecules is possible, and the concentration tells the scientists how diffuse/how far away the original placement of the die sample was. Is it possible the data regarding metered dies could be transposed to fit your coke question?

i wish i did kramus...i wish i did.
the reason i ask, is that spend a lot of time in the sea, in the pool or around the pool teaching, so im just curious as to how much the water is tainted with things other than water? you know, like when you swim in a pool and you swallow some water..each time that happens i always wonder how much urine i just drank. kramus, thats an interesting doco. what was the name of it?

Coke Zero. That's why no one can find any info on it.

This one has lost face. This one is so sorry.
But I would still rather fight you net-style than slit my belly! The refrain "pissed on porpoise" kept echoing in my mind after I read this. Lame, I know.

I don't think the current runs that way. But, my dad's a cop and he's told me about people whose bodies have been found floating in the water for days with an advanced stage of decaying. I always wonder if bits and pieces of them are floating all over the place since fish eat a little messily. |
