Mole & Avogadro Constant Flashcards
The Avogadro constant (NA or L) is the
number of particles equivalent to the relative atomic mass or molecular mass of a substance
amount of atoms in 12g of carbon 12
The Avogadro constant applies to atoms, molecules, ions and electrons
Avogadro’s constant value is
The value of NA is 6.02 x 10(power)23 g mol-1
avogrado constant units
g/mol -1
The value of NA is 6.02 x 1023 g mol-1
The mass of a substance with this number of particles is called a
mole
The mass of a substance containing the same number of fundamental units as there are atoms in exactly 12.00 g of 12C ?
One mole of any element is equal to the
relative atomic mass of that element in grams
If you had one mole of carbon in your hand, that is 6.02 x 1023 atoms of carbon, you would have a mass of 12.00 g
One mole of water would have a mass of (2 x 1 + 16) = 18 g
