#6.022xx10^23#

Explanation:

A mole of anything is just a way of expressing how many of something there are.

If I were referring to a mole of ballerina dancers, I would be talking about #6.022xx10^23# ballerina dancers.

The reason a mole is #6.022xx10^23# is because one mole of hydrogen atoms weighs about #1# gram.
