Mole Problems?

One day on the Tonight Show, Jay Leno showed a classified add that read: "Do you have mole problems? If so, call Avogadro at 602-1023."

One mole is 6.022x1023 atoms/molecules/ions. You can use moles to calculate from mass in grams to moles of an atom to formula units. Avogadro is the man who discovered the mol.
