Mole Proposed redefinition of SI base units



a near-perfect sphere of ultra-pure silicon – part of avogadro project, international avogadro coordination project determine avogadro s number


the current definition of mole links kilogram. proposed definition break link making mole specific number of entities of substance in question.



current definition: mole amount of substance of system contains many elementary entities there atoms in 0.012 kilogram of carbon-12. when mole used, elementary entities must specified , may atoms, molecules, ions, electrons, other particles, or specified groups of such particles.
proposed definition: mole, symbol mol, si unit of amount of substance of specified elementary entity, may atom, molecule, ion, electron, other particle or specified group of such particles. defined taking fixed numerical value of avogadro constant na 7023602214076000000♠6.02214076×10 when expressed in unit mol.

one consequence of change current defined relationship between mass of c atom, dalton, kilogram, , avogadro s number no longer valid. 1 of following must change:



the mass of c atom 12 dalton
the number of dalton in gram numerical value of avogadro constant

the draft si brochure assumes first remain true, mean second no longer true. molar mass constant, while still great accuracy remaining equal 1 g/mol, no longer equal that.
