Study Notes
Units and Measurements at the Microscopic Level
- The unit used to count microscopic entities is the mole.
- The symbol for mole is "mol."
Avogadro Constant
- The Avogadro constant, a fundamental physical constant, is approximately 6.022 × 10²³ entities per mole.
- One mole corresponds to about 6.022 × 10²³ elementary entities, which can include atoms, molecules, ions, or other particles.
Amount of Substance
- The amount of substance measures the quantity of specified elementary entities in a system, offering a bridge between macroscopic and microscopic quantities.
SI Unit
- The SI unit of amount of substance is the mole (mol), ensuring standardization in scientific measurement.
Fixed Numerical Value
- The fixed numerical value of the Avogadro constant is defined as 6.02214076 × 10²³ mol⁻¹, establishing consistency in calculations involving mole quantities.
Counting Systems
- A dozen is a counting unit specifically used to denote twelve items, highlighting a different scale from the mole.
