What is a mole?
The mole (symbol mol) is
a unit of measurement,
the base unit in the
International System of
Units (SI) for amount of
substance, a quantity
proportional to the
number of elementary
entities of a substance.
A mole is a quantity used by chemists to
count atoms and molecules.
23
A mole of something is equal to 6.02 x 10
“somethings”.
1. NaCl =
2. C 6 H 12 O6 =
3. AgK =
4. CoAl =
5. CuTe =

2. Calculate the moles of 3.75x10
molecules of oxygen gas?
Let’s try it out!
3
The molar volume of any gas at STP is 22.4 dm
that is also equivalent to 22.4L.
Standard Temperature and Pressure (STP) is
defined as 0•C (273.15K) and 1 atm pressure.
23
At STP, one mole (6.022 x 10 representative
particles) of any gas occupies a volume of 22.4L.
Let’s try it out!
He = 4g NH 3 = 15g O 3 = 32g
