The number is far to big. A single mole of jelly beans would take up the whole planet earth. So imagine the numbers we would have to go into!

One mole is equal to avagadro number

Avagadro's number = 6.023 X 10^23

So it is a big big number. For pens or paper clips we do not need such big unit to express any figure.

Hence we cannot count the normal pens or pencils type macro objects in terms of moles

The mole is used for atomic level particles where in a small amount such large number of identities are present

Many grams of aluminum are required to produce 3.5 moles Al2O3 in the presence of excess O2?
Aleks [24]
The  grams  of aluminum  that are required   to produce  3.5  moles of AlO3  in  presence of excess O2   is calculated as  below

write  the  equation for reaction
4 Al + 3O2 =2 Al2O3

by use of mole  ratio between  Al  to  Al2O3   which  is  4 :2  the moles of  Al 
=3.5 x4/2 = 7  moles

mass of Al  =  moles /   x molar mass

= 7 moles  x27 g/mol  =189  grams

How many grams of tris (mw 121.1) would you need to prepare 100 ml of a 100 mm tris solution? _________ grams?
Tems11 [23]

Molarity = (Mass/ molar mass) x (1/ volume of solution in Litres)

Mass = Molarity x molar mass x  volume of solution in Litres

Molarity of Tris = 100 mM = 0.1 M

volume of Tris sol. = 100 mL = 0.1 L

molar mass of Tris = 121.1 g/mol

Hence,

mass of Tris = Molarity of Tris x molar mass ofTris x volume of Tris solution

= 0.1 M x 121.1 g/mol x 0.1 L

= 1.211 g

mass of Tris = 1.211 g

Determina el numero de masa para el paladio en la siguiente tabla:*
Damm [24]

The concept of atomic masses we can find that the correct answer is:

       c) 101

The atomic mass or mass number of an element is the sum of its protons plus the neutrons that are in the atomic nucleus, the electrons are not taken into account because they have a mass much lower than the masses of protons and neutrons.

   

In the table they indicate that there are 46 protons and 55 neutrons, therefore

          M = #_ {protons} + #_ {neutrons}

          M = 46 +55

          M = 101

In conclusion using the concept of atomic masses we find that the correct answer is:

c) 101
