Hey, that isn't nearly scary enough. According to Wikipedia, there are 1.94E+02 grams per mole 6.02E+23 atoms per mole which works out to 3.22E-22 grams per atom Found in the seawater were 4.50E-08 grams per liter which means there were 1.40E+14 atoms per liter Put in "national debt" units, that is 140 trillion atoms. The current U.S. national debt is only 16.5 trillion[1], so that is 8.5 times as many molecules per liter as the U.S. government owes in dollars.
