This is for chemistry and we have to define what a mole is for tomorrow's bellwork.

I know what it is, but what is a good way for a sophomore to define it? I think it'd be easier to understand with a simplier definition.

I'd prefer if you weren't immature and say something about the animal, the mole.

Thanks.

A mole of something is 6.02 x 10^23 of that something. Its similar to the term dozen which is 12 of something. So a dozen donuts is 12 donuts, and a mole of donuts is 6.02 x 10^23 donuts.

Avogadro's numbers define a mole...There is also a relationship 1 mole of anything is equal to the mass of 1gram * the atomic mass

Yeah, matahari is right. (I never thought I'd say that.)

It's a quantity used in chemistry for atoms and molecules.
