Hi.
I can't tell if this last post was intended to be humorous or not. I'm
in the mood to have fun and take it seriously, so here goes.
avogadros_number molecules = 1 mole molecules
A mole is like dozen. It is a count of whatever it is you are counting.
How many things are in a dozen? 12. Ho
Jonathan,
avogadro_constant = 6.022...e23/mole
molecule = 1/avogadro_constant => 6.022...e23 molecules = 6.022...e23
(mole/6.022...e23) = 1 mole
Now if we could just get the people who want units of "photon", "enzyme",
"giraffe", etc. to use units of "avogadro_constant-1" (which is understood
