Counting Atoms - The Mole
The easiest way of counting how many particles there are in a substance is to find its mass. There are 6.02 x 1023 atoms in 12g of carbon-12. It follows that if a magnesium-24 atom is twice the mass of a carbon-12 atom then there are 6.02 x 1023 atoms in 24g of magnesium-24.
