What is a Mole?
A mole is Avogadro’s number of items. Avogadro’s number is equal to 6.022 x 1023. That means that one mole of atoms would equal 6.022 x 1023 atoms, one mole of oranges would equal 6.022 x 1023 oranges, one mole of copper would equal 6.022 x 1023 copper atoms, and one mole of water would equal 6.022 x 1023 water molecules. One mole is equal to a set number of items (6.022 x 1023) just like one dozen is equal to a set number of items (12).
