If you could somehow remove 6.02*10 to the power of 23 teaspoons of water from the worlds oceans, would you completely drain the oceans? Explain.

Google for oceans volume, google for teaspoon volume, do some math. And read forum rules.

okay read the rules this isn't a homework question either, I dont study chemistry just thought its interesting to find out

6.02 x 10²³ is a very suspicious number for one to chose who is not studying chemistry.

I didnt choose it bro I got the question from a friend and since my dad is a chemist I have a little interest in it too, you could say why not ask your dad? yah I could do that but I dont feel like going to ma dad when i am not taking chemistry classes and besides I just wanted to know for fact.

Have you calculated the numbers and found out the answer yet? We are here to help you with that part, and will be glad to help.

About 321,000,000 mi3 (1,338,000,000 km3) is stored in oceans.

1 cubic meters is equal to 1,000.00 liters

1 US teaspoon = 4.92892161 milliliters

It is now only a math exercise.
