Moley, Moley, Moley
Moles are a Chemist best friend.

2. What is a Mole?
A mole is not a critter that burrow’s under the ground.
A mole is not a little man that lives under a bridge – that’s a troll
A mole is a group of objects – like a dozen is 12 or a gross is 144

3. Why do we use the word mole?
The word mole come form the Latin word moles which means a pile of things.
In the case of a mole we mean 6.02 X 1023 objects, molecules, formula units or atoms.
1 dozen = 12
1 pair = 2
1 mole = 6.02 X 1023

4. Why 6.02 X 1023? The number is based on the C-12 isotope.
12 g of the C-12 isotope has exactly 6.02 X 1023 atoms.
The atomic mass is therefore a molar mass
So grams of Sulfur has exactly
6.02 X 1023 atoms of sulfur.

5. Atomic Mass and the Mole
One mole of any element has exactly 6.02 X 1023 atoms of that element.
You couldn’t possible count that number it is too large.
