That might seem like a large volume, but it’s not. It’s almost half of a liter, so that’s half a bottle of soda.
Moles and Particles
These moles aren’t the furry creatures that make holes in the ground. The name comes from molecules (which is apparently too long to write).
Here’s an example to help you understand the idea of a mole. Suppose you run an electric current through water. A water molecule is made of one oxygen atom and two hydrogen atoms. (That’s H2O.) This electric current breaks up the water molecule, and you get hydrogen gas (H2) and oxygen gas (O2).
This is actually a pretty simple experiment. Check it out
