Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The moles of nitrogen atoms inhaled by a person who inhales $9.72\times {10}^{21}{\text{ N}}_2\text{ molecules}$ is to be calculated. The road map for the calculations of the moles of nitrogen atoms is to be included.

Concept introduction:

The SI unit for amount of substance is $\text{mol}$. One mole is defined as the amount of substance that contains the same number of entities such as molecules, ions, atoms as the number of atoms in $12\text{ g}$ of $\text{C-12}$. This number is called Avogadro’s number. The value of Avogadro’s number is $\text{6}\text{.022}\times {\text{10}}^{23}\left(\text{entitites/mol}\right)$.
