Celebrating Mole Day: Understanding Chemistry's Mole and Fun Facts

Mole Day, celebrated on October 23 from 6:02 a.m. to 6:02 p.m., honors Avogadro's Number (6.02 x 10^23), a fundamental concept in chemistry introduced by Amedeo Avogadro. This day is filled with enjoyable activities and unique facts about this essential quantity in science. From humorous puns related to the term "mole," like "Molercoaster" and "Moleasses cookies," to the surprising insights into the scale of moles in everyday items like watermelon seeds and blood cells, Mole Day provides a fun way to appreciate chemistry.

  1. Does any one know what a MOLE is? MOLES….well not that kind!!

  2. A mole used in chemistry There is such a thing called mole day! Celebrated annually on October 23 from 6:02 a.m. to 6:02 p.m.

  3. A.k.a Avagadro’s Number This was first discovered by Amedeo Avogadro (1776-1858) and he received credit for this after his death.

  4. Professor Mole's Favorites • Chip Dip: Guacamolee (Especially since it's made from Avogadros) • Fave Song: Ride, Ride, Ride That Molercoaster • Toy: Tickle Me Elmole • Fungus: Anything Moledy • Sport: Moler Hockey • Basketball Player: Karl Molelone • Boy Wonder Quote: "Holy Moley Batman" • Cookies: Moleasses • Guitarist: Eddie Van Molen • Summer Pastime: spitting watermoleon seeds • Snack: Marshmolelow Treats • Breakfast Meal: Omolettes • Kevin Costner Movie: Dances with Moles • Singer/Poet: Jim Molerison from The Doors • Book: Moleby Dick • Slapstick Comedian: Larry, Curly & Mole

  5. Professor Mole's Mole Facts 6.02 X 1023 of the following items: Watermelon Seeds - would be found inside a melon slightly larger than the moon Donut Holes- would cover the earth and be 5 miles deep Grains of Sand- would be more than all the sand on Miami Beach Blood Cells- would be more than the total number of blood cells found in every human on earth 1 Liter bottle of Water contains 55.5 moles H20 5 Pound Bag of Sugar contains 6.6 moles Of C12H22O11 There are 3 types of moles that live underground in North America: Eastern Mole, Hairy-Tailed Mole and Star-Nosed Mole

  6. MOLES • Because atoms are so tiny we must work with • huge quantities of them when we measure out a sample • The quantity we use is a mole 1 mole = 602,000,000,000,000,000,000,000 or 1 mole = 6.02 x 1023 • This long (weird) number allows us to retain mass numbers whether working with a single atom of the • element or a full mole of the element

  7. MOLES 13 27 20 40 1 atom = 27 amu (atomic mass unit) 27 amu = 1 atom 1mole of Al = 27 grams Al C • .5 mole = 20 grams • 1 mole = 40 grams • 2 mole = 80 grams • 2.5 mole=100 grams ½ or .5 moles = 6.02 divided by 2 = 3.01 x 1023 (remove the exponent to do this)

  8. 22.4 liters equal to  Atomic mass (grams) 1 MOLE equal to  equal to  6.02 x 1023 Individual atoms
