Mole Conversion Formula:
From: | To: |
The mole is the SI unit for amount of substance. One mole contains exactly 6.02214076×10²³ elementary entities (Avogadro's number). This calculator converts between number of atoms and moles.
The calculator uses the mole conversion formula:
Where:
Explanation: The formula relates the microscopic count of particles to the macroscopic amount of substance.
Details: Mole calculations are fundamental in chemistry for stoichiometric calculations, determining reactant quantities, and analyzing chemical reactions.
Tips: Enter the number of atoms (must be positive). The calculator will compute the equivalent amount in moles.
Q1: What is Avogadro's number?
A: Avogadro's number (6.02214076×10²³) is the number of particles in one mole of a substance.
Q2: Can this be used for molecules too?
A: Yes, the calculator works for any elementary entities (atoms, molecules, ions, etc.).
Q3: Why is the result so small?
A: Avogadro's number is extremely large, so mole quantities for practical numbers of atoms are typically very small.
Q4: How precise is this calculation?
A: The calculator uses the exact 2019 definition of Avogadro's number with 9 significant figures.
Q5: What's the difference between moles and molecules?
A: Moles are a unit of amount (like dozen), while molecules are physical particles. One mole = 6.022×10²³ molecules.
