Avogadros law states that under similar condition of T and P, equal volumes of gases contain equal number
of particles. Experiments show that at one atmosphere pressure and at a temperature 273 K (i.e. at STP)
one mole of any gas occupies a volume approximately 22.4 litres. Therefore number of moles of any sample
of gas can be found by comparing its volume at STP with 22.4.
1 mole of any species contains 6.023 1023 particles which is denoted by symbol NA. Number of atoms present
in 1 gm-atom of an element or number of molecules present in 1 gm-molecule of any substance is equal to NA.
