Avogadro's Number (Brian)

-Atoms and molecules are extremely small
-Macroscopic objects contain to many to count or weigh individually
-Amedo Avogadro proposed that the number of atoms in 12.00000g
 of Carbon are equal to a constant (equal to 1 mol of Carbon)
-This value is now called Avogadro's number and forms the basis
 of all quantitative chem

* 1 mol of meters would cross the entire galaxy over 3000 times(1 mol repersents a huge number of   particles)
