Mole (unit) definition of Mole (unit) in the Free Online Encyclopedia.

gram-molecular weight, amount of a molecular substance whose weight, in grams, is numerically equal to the molecular weight molecular weight, weight of a molecule of a substance expressed in atomic mass units (amu). The molecular weight may be calculated from the molecular formula of the substance; it is the sum of the atomic weights of the atoms making up the molecule.

For example, one gram-molecular weight of molecular oxygen, O₂ (molecular weight approximately 32), is 32 grams, and one gram-molecular weight of water, H₂O (molecular weight approximately 18) is 18 grams. The term mole mole, in chemistry, a quantity of particles of any type equal to Avogadro's number, or 6.02×10²³ particles. One gram-molecular weight of any molecular substance contains exactly one mole of molecules.
