Moles GPS 13 -write 6.022 x 10^23 on the board -ask: ever baked a cake? What if the recipe called for 6.02 x 10^23 individual crystals of sugar? Of course, that would be ridiculous. What do we use instead (cup)? So we have a unit of measurement when baking…we use cups, tablespoons, and teaspoons. Same thing in chemistry. I would never ask you to count out atoms of an element or ions/molecules in a compound. Not only is it ridiculous, it’s impossible to do with just your eyes alone. When we are talking about a huge amount of something, we use moles (which is 6.02 x 10^23 of something) to make our counting process much faster and easier. So, instead of saying I have 6.02 x 10^23 crystals of sugar, you can say I have exactly one mole of sugar. - If you were to try to count out 6.022 x 10^23 of something, how long to you think it would take? 4 generations.
The Mole: A unit of measurement Moles are a unit of measurement much like other units of measurement you are familiar with. Examples of familiar units of measurement: 12 eggs = 1 dozen or 12 eggs/dozen 4 quarts = 1 gallon or 4 quarts/gallon 100 pennies = 1 dollar or 100 pennies/dollar 12 inches = 1 foot or 12 inches/foot
