MOLE
:
A measurement for the
AMOUNT OF SUBSTANCE
of a chemical.
Unit:
mol
ONE MOLE of any substance has the same number of
particles
as
Avogadro's constant
.
The value for AVOGADRO’S CONSTANT is 6.02 x 1023 per mole.
The PARTICLES mentioned can be atoms, molecules, ions & even electrons.
ONE
MOLE
of any substance has the SAME MASS in grams as its own relative formula
mass
(
Mr
).
Moles
= mass /
RELATIVE FORMULA MASS
Find the number of moles in 32g of Methane (CH4):
Mr
= 12 + 1 + 1 + 1 + 1 =
16
Moles = 32 / 16 =
2mol
