Mole (unit) informal holiday in honor of the unit among chemists. The date is derived from the Avogadro number, which is approximately . It starts at 6:02 a.m. and ends at 6:02 p.m. Alternatively, some chemists celebrate June 2 or February 6, a reference to the 6.02 part of the constant. Mole (unit) The mole is the unit of measurement for amount of substance in the International System of Units (SI). Effective 20 May 2019, the mole is defined as the amount of a chemical substance that contains exactly (Avogadro's constant) constitutive particles, e.g., atoms, molecules, ions or electrons. This definition was
Gas constant "V" is the volume of gas (SI unit cubic metres), "n" is the amount of gas (SI unit moles), "m" is the mass (SI unit kilograms) contained in "V", and "T" is the thermodynamic temperature (SI unit kelvins). "R" is the molar-weight-specific gas constant, discussed below. The gas constant is expressed in the same physical units as molar entropy and molar heat capacity. From the general equation "PV" = "nRT" we get: where "P" is pressure, "V" is volume, "n" is number of moles of a given substance, and "T" is temperature. As pressure is defined as force per unit
