The long-anticipated Mol Day has finally arrived! Students
celebrated from 6:02 am to 6:02 pm by playing mol games, eating mol
food, and paying tribute to Amadeus Avagadro--"Father of the
Mol."
The mol is an important number used in Chemistry.
It is similar to a dozen, in that it always represents the
same number of particles. Where a dozen is 12, a mole is
6.022 x 1023.
This number is used in mass conversions so chemists can
compare amounts of subastances. The basis for the "mol" was
discovered by Amadeus Avagadro who based his calculations on
Carbon-12; however his work was not widely accepted until after his
death.
