Soil erosion has consequences that go beyond the loss of fertile land. It has resulted in an increase in contamination and sedimentation in lakes and rivers, clogging them and causing fish and other animals to decline. Degraded lands are also less capable of retaining water, which can exacerbate flooding.
The number of atoms in one mole of any substance is measured by Avogadro's number. The value of Avogadro's number is 6.023 x 10 ^23. It is named after scientist Avogadro who proposed this number. 12 grams of carbon-12 represents 1 mole of carbon-12. For this reason, the number of atoms present in 1 mole of any substance is 6.023 x 10 ^23. Therefore, the number of atoms present in 1 mole carbon-12 is 6.023 x 10^23.
(Answer) This unit is the number of atoms in 12 grams of carbon-12 and known as Avogadro's number.
