Questions
Define the term "mole." What is the unit for mole in
calculations? What does the mole have in common
with the pair, the dozen, and the gross? What does
Avogadro's number represent?
What is
the molar mass of an atom? Wha
That
Around 1805, Gay-Lussac and von Humboldt determined that two volumes of hydrogen and one colume of oxygen, were needed to form two volumes of water. Later around 1822 Avogadro had arrives at the conclusion that hydrogen and oxygen must be diatmoic molecules even though the concept of a mole was not developed until 1900. How did Avogadro figure this out?
