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

What volume would 0.853 moles of Nitrogen gas occupy at STP?
beks73 [17]

Answer:

19.12 L

Explanation:

At STP(i.e. Standard temperature and pressure).

The volume occupied by one mole of gas = 22.4 L

The pressure = 1 atm

The temperature = 273 K

Thus, since 1 mole of gas = 22.4 L;

Then 0.853 moles of N2 gas will occupy:

= (0.853 moles of N2 gas × 22.4 L)/ 1 mole of N2 gas

= 19.12 L
