Mole Concept

Mole concept is a method to determine the amount of any substance that consists of some elemental particles using a grouping unit called ‘mole’. The mole concept enables one to handle the large amount of small elementary particles. The mole concept can be used in many calculations related to mole calculation, molar amount, mole ratio, and so on, which are significant in chemistry.

Torricelli, who invented the barometer, used mercury inits construction because mercury has a very high density,which makes it possible to make a more compact barometerthan one based on a less dense fluid.

Assume the tube containing the mercury isa cylinder with a constant cross-sectional area.
