i have to do a project for school and i have to make up a cool fact using the mole. and to refresh your memory, the mole refers to 6.02 x 10^23 of anything (Avogadro's number).

So heres the problem...
if i wanted to take a mole amount of pictures (6.02x10^23 pictures), and it takes me 5 seconds to take a picture, how long would it take me to take a mole amount of pictures?

show work please.... :)
and if you know how to do it the dimensional analysis way, please tell me how to do it that.
thanks :)

If you just multiply Avo's number by 5, you will have the answer in total seconds.

If you want it in minutes, divide by 60. If you want it in hours, divide by another 60. If you want it in days divide by another 24. If you want it in years, divide by another 365.25.

That should do it. You will want to keep the exponents basis, because it will be many, many years.
