Sagot :
- When you buy eggs you usually ask for a dozen eggs. You know that one dozen of any item is 12.
- Paper is not packaged by the dozen. Paper is packaged by a ream. A ream of paper has 500 sheets. Why is it useful to use units like a dozen or a ream? To easily understand and visualize the things in real life.
- What determines how many items should make up a particular unit?The Avogadro's number determines how many items make up a particular unit, such that 1 mole of a substance contains 6.022 × items. Therefore, 1 mole of anything has 6.022× items.
- If you were asked to design a new unit to count something, what would you consider when choosing how many items should be included in your new counting unit? I would still consider choosing Avogadro's number because it can be represented in moles can be atoms, molecules, monoatomic/polyatomic ions, and other particles such as electrons.
