  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]

  4. Amount of substance - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Amount_of_substance

    In chemistry, the amount of substance (symbol n) in a given sample of matter is defined as a ratio (n = N/N A) between the number of elementary entities (N) and the Avogadro constant (N A). Since 2019, the value of the Avogadro constant N A is defined to be exactly 6.022 140 76 × 10 23 mol −1 .

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Glossary_of_chemistry_terms

    The number of discrete particles (such as molecules, atoms, ions, electrons, or any other atomic-scale entity) in a given sample of matter, divided by the Avogadro constant. The SI unit for amount of substance is the mole (mol). amphipathic (of a molecule) Composed of both hydrophilic and hydrophobic groups; e.g. wetting agents and membrane ...

  6. Gas - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gas

    For his work with gases a century prior, the physical constant that bears his name (the Avogadro constant) is the number of atoms per mole of elemental carbon-12 (6.022 × 10 23 mol −1). This specific number of gas particles, at standard temperature and pressure (ideal gas law) occupies 22.40 liters, which is referred to as the molar volume.

  7. Z-matrix (chemistry) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Z-matrix_(chemistry)

    In chemistry, the Z-matrix is a way to represent a system built of atoms.A Z-matrix is also known as an internal coordinate representation.It provides a description of each atom in a molecule in terms of its atomic number, bond length, bond angle, and dihedral angle, the so-called internal coordinates, [1] [2] although it is not always the case that a Z-matrix will give information regarding ...

  8. Monatomic gas - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Monatomic_gas

    One mole of atoms contains an Avogadro number of atoms, so that the energy of one mole of atoms of a monatomic gas is =, where R is the gas constant. In an adiabatic process , monatomic gases have an idealised γ -factor ( C p / C v ) of 5/3, as opposed to 7/5 for ideal diatomic gases where rotation (but not vibration at room temperature) also ...

  9. Orders of magnitude (numbers) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Orders_of_magnitude_(numbers)

    Chemistry – Physics: The Avogadro constant (6.022 140 76 × 10 23) is the number of constituents (e.g. atoms or molecules) in one mole of a substance, defined for convenience as expressing the order of magnitude separating the molecular from the macroscopic scale.
