Discussion Topic In the SI system of units, the mole is one of seven base units. It is frequently used in chemical calculations. However, a mole of something is just a particular quantity of it. It is not a unit of measure in the way that meters, seconds, and kilograms are. Calculations performed with the number of moles of a substance could also be performed with the number of particles of a substance. Based on this information, do you think that the mole should be considered a base unit in the SI system? Explain why or why not.

27 In an alien world, a different periodic table exists. It is organized similar to the periodic table in our world, just smaller. The first group contains the alkali metals, the second group the alkaline earth metals, there are a few transition metals, and then some non-metals. The periodic table is shown below in picture form, and a table is given with molar masses and common ionic charges. Also in the table is a list of common ion groups (similar to carbonate, nitrate, etc. in our world.)
