Q

The Mole and Avogadro’s Number

A
  • The mole is a unit of measure that connects the atomic-molecular world with the macroscopic world.
  • Avogadro’s number helps to connect the periodic table with things that can be physically measured.
2
Q

mole and conversion factors

A
  • Atoms and molecules are far too tiny to measure individually. The mole (abbreviated mol) is the collective unit used to measure numbers of things
  • A mole is defined to be the number of things good to the number, or atoms present in exactly 12 grams of carbon-12 (12C).
  • 12C was chosen as the standard partly because it is the first element in the periodic table whose mass may be conveniently measured.
  • Avogadro’s number, 6.022 x 10^23, represents the number of units in a mole.
  • Conversion factors are factors of one relating the same quantity between two systems of units. They are used to convert measurements from one set of units to another. Thus, one mole of fluorine atoms is defined to be 6.022 x 10^23 atoms of fluorine.
