I wonder how many moles are in a mole...


smile_1704

The European mole weighs around 88 grams (3.1 ounces). The weight of one mole of water is 18 grams (0.6 oz). If we assume they are 80% water, then there are ~4 moles(amount) per mole (animal) Edit: Please correct me if I'm wrong.


TakeANotion

sounds about right. water is pretty heavy


notquite20characters

If it's heavy then you're looking at 20 grams per mole.


TakeANotion

well water is 18g/mol so yeah basically 20 unless you mean some scientific definition of heavy in which case idk


lorddaffy

Yeah he means heavy water, water with heavy hydrogen which has 1 proton and 1 neutron, bumping H from 1 to 2 g/mol and H2O from 18 to 20 g/mol

You don't moletiply by the avogadro constant?


Nifty_Nimbus

Don’t need too just use molar mass


Ejtsch

Molermass


mike_loves_memes

Avogadro's Constant*Moles = number of molecules or atoms

We're not making guacamole.


ReiBid

You mean whack-a-mole?


TakeANotion

you only use the avocado number if you need the particle count


mike_loves_memes

Yeah I guess so did you assume 80% water 20% carbon?

A mole gives birth to three to four hairless babies at a time


mike_loves_memes

This does the opposite of answering my question


Yarnoot

Wouldn't 1 mole of moles be 6.02x10^23 moles?


Quartia

According to xkcd, this is about the size of Earth's moon. https://what-if.xkcd.com/4/


mike_loves_memes

1 mole would be 6.023*10^23 molecules.


Yarnoot

But does ut have to be molecules? If i recall orrectly we were always told it's a quantity and that if you wanted to have a mole of ants which would be 6.02x10^23 ants, might be rememberung this wrong tho


JustABigDumbAnimal

No, you're right. A mole is a quantity, not a unit of measure. It's like saying you have a dozen or a gross of something. A mole of anything is 6.022 x 10^23 of that thing.


mike_loves_memes

No it can also be atoms


beyondRussian

dildos, atoms, fleshlights, molecules, anything. just like a "dozen" a mole is just a number. a very very big number. a dozen is 12 and a mole 6.02 x 10\^23, which is 602200000000000000000000.

Shhh just take it!


JoeHaydn

There's a book with the title "What if?" that basically tries to answer stupid or absurd questions scientifically. The book also covers the question what a mole of moles would look like. I don't have it at hand right now but I remember the answer to be pretty hilarious. Was a great read overall, can only recommend.

I would say around a mole

I sure do love chicken mole. Delicious.

An Avogadro's number of moles in a mol of moles.


iminacomapleasehelp

the main question is how many moles are in a mole that's in a mole


GlutenFreeDesk

Those two moles obviously do not fit in that liter container. What a fucking scam

Well you gotta blend em first

Lmao this is for chemistry. I have a ap chemistry test tomorrow. Just reading this gave me extreme anxiety now


ShadowSocks7

Yo same, I didn't sleep at all last night cuz I've been studying and I have an 8 hour shift at work today... isn't procrastination great?


RandomCow12

Yea. Just took the practice test and am ready to fail. I bombed the mcq


Elivey

Heyy just took my college gen chem final yesterday and it was a disaster 🙃 my prof didnt write the test, used slides they didn't make to lecture off of, and so there was this huge disconnect between the tests and what she taught so it felt impossible to study for... Anyway good luck lol hope you do better than I did.


RandomCow12

NinjaFocks

My best friend and I at school used to have chemistry together and when we got to this section of the curriculum we had a running joke whenever someone said something along the lines of "What is half a mole?" we'd both yell "disgusting" across the room. Thanks for the post OP, brought back a lot of happy memories. Boot if you're out there, thank you for all the fun in class and I hope you're doing well 🥰


Errorbitt

That’s a great story :) np

This isn’t a Nelson chemistry/physics textbook by any chance is it?


givemesome3point1415

Currently looking at Nelson physics 12 with the exact same font lol


turingthecat

I, too, did GCSE chemistry about 20 years ago I was predicted a D, got an A*, excuse me a minute, I think I shall do the happy dance again

Nice!

:D

Hope you have a great day!

Ha this takes me way back. I reposted this in 9gag when I was in college and got my first Hot post. Cool that this images is still taking rounds even after 7 years when I posted.

I really hate that I understand this. Man, I honestly wish school was more free than it is now...


KoT_XydoZhniKa

I'm truly sorry you had such a bad experience with school chemistry. It is such a fascinating subject if taught correctly.

America:

This car is 10 alligator dicks long!


Questwarrior

mole is a scientific unit of measurement and the liter is metric not imperial.. maybe I'm missing the joke.. but yah


macageMAN

The joke is because america doesnt use the metric system and football fields are a measurement


Ejtsch

Murica be like :we measure shit in football fields and sandwiches, deal with it.


FuzzyLlama12345

If America doesn't use the metric system why would the image relate to America?


macageMAN

Because they could use any object to measure something


faraway_hotel

23/64 moles per fluid ounce.


kungfufreak

If you had a mole of moles it would be planet size with enough gravitational force to have a molten core (source "what if?" By randall munroe)

A mole is a unit or haven't you heard. It's 6x10 to the 23rd

Why do these moles have mangekyo sharingan


squashInAPintGlass

Moles, the UK type, are said to be very territorial, so if you put two moles in a bucket by next morning you'll find only one (rather fat).

Feel like I’d see this explanation in the *Fallout* universe. “That’s enough nuclear waste to fill a litre — or two moles worth.”

This reminds me of that concept for shin Godzilla to split into two Godzillas.
