Question #ebf63

Answer 1

If I understood your question, the relationship between `32grams` of `O_2`, Avogadro's number and `1` mole can be described briefly like this:

A very good analogy for the concept of mole is that one can think of a mole as a "chemist's dozen"; instead of going by the number of individual atoms or molecules that form a certain amount of a substance, one would use moles, where

`1` mole has `6.022 * 10^23` atoms

Now, molar mass represents the weight of one mole of a certain element or substance; `1` mole of oxygen weighs approximately `16` grams, which would mean that `1` mole of diatomic oxygen, `O_2`, weighs twice than that, `32` grams.

So, `32grams` of `O_2` represents `1` mole, which in turn represents `6.022 * 10^23` `O_2` molecules.
