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

Why must living things rely on thousands of catalysts for chemical reactions necessary for life?
Murrr4er [49]
Well, you don't need enzymes (biological catalysts) if you're willing to wait a century or two to digest a burger.

Without catalysts, complex reactions like digestion would take too long and the organism could not extract energy from the nutrients it eats in a practical time frame.

In addition, speed is everything in the biological world.

Some reactions and their speed relative to other organisms reactions determines who survives and who doesn't, among other aspects of life.

If a plant is slow to photosynthesize and grow in a habitat high in competition for sunlight real estate, other autotrophs will surely take over.

The three end stages of stars are Red Giant Phase, Second Red Giant Phase and White Dwarf Phase correct?
solong [7]

Answer: Most of the stars in the universe are main sequence stars — those converting hydrogen into helium via nuclear fusion. A main sequence star may have a mass between a third to eight times that of the sun and eventually burn through the hydrogen in its core. Over its life, the outward pressure of fusion has balanced against the inward pressure of gravity. Once the fusion stops, gravity takes the lead and compresses the star smaller and tighter.

Temperatures increase with the contraction, eventually reaching levels where helium is able to fuse into carbon. Depending on the mass of the star, the helium burning might be gradual or might begin with an explosive flash.

What is moment and its calculations ​
PIT_PIT [208]

Answer:

Moment=Force x Pivot

Explanation:

A moment is the turning effect of a force. Moments act about a point in a clockwise or anticlockwise direction.

Law of moments:

When an object is balanced (in equilibrium) the sum of the clockwise moments is equal to the sum of the anticlockwise moments.

How to calculate moments:

Moment=Force x Pivot
