  2. Avogadro constant - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Avogadro_constant

    The Avogadro constant, commonly denoted N A [1] or L, [2] is an SI defining constant with an exact value of 6.022 140 76 × 10 23 mol −1 (reciprocal moles). [3] [4] It is this defined number of constituent particles (usually molecules, atoms, ions, or ion pairs—in general, entities) per mole and used as a normalization factor in relating the amount of substance, n(X), in a sample of a ...

  3. Mole (unit) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mole_(unit)

    Historically, N 0 approximates the number of nucleons (protons or neutrons) in one gram of ordinary matter. The Avogadro constant (symbol N A = N 0 /mol) has numerical multiplier given by the Avogadro number with the unit reciprocal mole (mol −1). [2] The ratio n = N/N A is a measure of the amount of substance (with the unit mole). [2] [3] [4]

    "The mole, symbol mol, is the SI unit of amount of substance. One mole contains exactly 6.022 140 76 × 10 23 elementary entities. This number is the fixed numerical value of the Avogadro constant, N A, when expressed in the unit mol −1 and is called the Avogadro number.

    This number is the fixed numerical value of the Avogadro constant, N A, when expressed in the unit mol −1 and is called the Avogadro number. [7] [48] The amount of substance, symbol n, of a system is a measure of the number of specified elementary entities. An elementary entity may be an atom, a molecule, an ion, an electron, any other ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Amount_of_substance

    The unit of amount of substance in the International System of Units is the mole (symbol: mol), a base unit. [1] Since 2019, the value of the Avogadro constant N A is defined to be exactly 6.022 140 76 × 10 23 mol −1. Sometimes, the amount of substance is referred to as the chemical amount or, informally, as the "number of moles" in a given ...
