Why I Like Moles

I like moles. Not the furry little critters, but 6.02x10^23. An amount.

Carbon's relative atomic mass is 12. 1 mole of Carbon weighs 12 grams. Mind blown? I think so.

Pity the chemistry kind don't have cute noses...

Moles are useful because they enable us to work out amounts of elements used in reactions, as long as we know the relative atomic mass of the elements or molecule. This is relatively simple to do so, and is hence why I like them; easy marks in tests!
