Amedeo Avogadro Amedeo Avogadro Amedeo Carlo Avogadro, () Count of Quaregna and Cerreto (9 August 17769 July 1856), was an Italian scientist, most noted for his contribution to molecular theory now known as Avogadro's law, which states that equal volumes of gases under the same conditions of temperature and pressure will contain equal numbers of molecules. In tribute to him, the number of elementary entities (atoms, molecules, ions or other particles) in 1 mole of a substance, , is known as the Avogadro constant, one of the seven SI base units and represented by "N". Lorenzo Romano Amedeo Carlo Avogadro was born
Base conditions and temperature in which all 'net' volumes will be expressed. The density of a gas at a specific pressure can be estimated by using the ideal gas law. Doubling absolute pressure doubles the density of a gas, and doubling absolute temperature halves the density. The number of molecules in a given gas volume depends on the pressure and temperature. This is why the pressure and temperature must be stated in order for a volume measurement to mean anything. Density correction is also performed on liquids under measurement. For instance, the sticker on gasoline pumps that states that the volume is
