Avogadro's number is the number of particles (atoms or molecules most of the time) that is contained in one mole of a substance. The theory is actually very simple, and you should easily get these questions sorted out, but it depends on whether or not you've used the number before.

Who actually cemented the theory but named it in the honor or Avogadro?
-
Erwin Schrödinger
-
Jean Perrin
-
Richard Feynman
-
Max Planck
Correct Answer
A. Jean PerrinExplanation
Jean Perrin is the correct answer because he was the one who actually cemented the theory, but named it in the honor of Avogadro. Perrin was a French physicist who conducted experiments on Brownian motion, which provided strong evidence for the existence of atoms and molecules. He also made significant contributions to the understanding of Avogadro's law and the determination of Avogadro's number. Therefore, Perrin's work played a crucial role in solidifying the theory and honoring Avogadro's contributions to the field of chemistry.Rate this question:

What's the symbol of Avogadro's number?
-
Q
-
L
-
T
-
Nt
Correct Answer
A. LExplanation
The symbol for Avogadro's number is "L". Avogadro's number, also known as Avogadro's constant, is a fundamental constant in chemistry and physics that represents the number of particles (atoms, molecules, ions, etc.) in one mole of a substance. The symbol "L" is derived from the Italian word "loschimia," which means chemistry. It is used to represent Avogadro's number in various equations and calculations involving the mole concept.Rate this question:

What's the number called in German literature?
-
Loschmidt Constant
-
Japhetic Constant
-
Fokker–Planck Constant
-
Lanck's Black Body Radiation Constant
Correct Answer
A. Loschmidt ConstantExplanation
The Loschmidt Constant, also known as the Avogadro Constant, is a fundamental constant in physics and chemistry. It represents the number of particles (atoms, molecules, ions) present in one mole of a substance and is often used to convert between the macroscopic and microscopic scales. It is named after the Austrian physicist Johann Loschmidt, who made significant contributions to the understanding of gases and kinetic theory. In German literature, the Loschmidt Constant may be mentioned in the context of scientific discussions or historical references.Rate this question:

Do you know the unit of Avogadro's number?
-
Mol
-
N
-
N^-1
-
Mol^-1
Correct Answer
A. N^-1Explanation
The unit of Avogadro's number is N^-1. This is because Avogadro's number represents the number of particles (atoms, molecules, ions, etc.) in one mole of a substance. The unit N^-1 indicates that it is the reciprocal of Avogadro's number, meaning it represents the number of moles per particle. So, N^-1 is the correct unit for Avogadro's number.Rate this question:
