Study Notes
Amount of Substance
- There are 6.02214076 × 10^23 elementary entities in one mole.
- The Avogadro constant (NA) is 6.02214076 × 10^23 particles per mole (mol-1).
- The unit of measurement for amount of substance is the mole (mol).
- Historically, the mole represents the amount of a substance that contains as many particles as there are atoms in 0.012 kilograms of carbon-12.
- As of 2019, the mole is defined as containing exactly 6.02214076 × 10^23 particles, which is the numerical equivalence of the mole.
