Avogadro's Number
(symbol
<math>NA</math>)
The number of molecules in 1 mole of gas (<math>6.02252 X 1023</math>
per mole).
That this number is a constant for permanent gases is the
Avogadro law: under normal conditions, i.e., pressure of 1 standard
atmosphere and temperature of 0° C, the volume occupied
by 1 mole of gas is the same for all permanent gases (22,414 cubic
centimeters). See
Loschmidt number.
