Think of it this way: it is a distribution problem in which you are multiplying the 2 on the outside with each element in the parentheses. Oxygen does not have a number in front of it, so put an imaginary one in front of it to help you. Do the same with Hydrogen since it doesn't have a number in front of it either. Now you know that hydrogen has one ion and oxygen has one... but you must now multiply each of the elements' ions by two. You should now know that Oxygen has 2 ions in Calcium Hydroxide and that there are also 2 ions of Hydrogen in Calcium Hydroxide. Does this make sense?

Why is Avogadro’s number referred to as a mole? If you could change this terminology, what would you change it to and why?
stepan [7]

The number of particles (molecules, atoms, compounds, etc.) per mole of a substances is known as Avagadro number. It is equal to 6.022×10^23 mol-1 and is expressed as NA.


Number of moles is the amount of a substance that contains as many particles as there are atoms in 12 grams of pure carbon-12. So, 1 mol contains 6.022×10^23 elementary entities of the substance. Since 6.022 x 10^23 is the Avagadro number, one mole is equal to Avagadro number.


One mole of a substance is the ratio of mass of the substance by the molecular mass of the substance. Thus the mass of one mole of a substance is equal to the substance's molecular weight. Thus one mole of a substance is the atomic mass unit of a substance and since one mole is equivalent to the Avagadro number,we can conclude that one Avagadro number is one atomic mass unit of the substance.
