Is that Avogadro’s constant?
The Man, the Myth, the Mole
I wish I had an avocado.
Can someone help a pleb like me know the guy and the number reference? Edit: thanks guys!, I’ll study him :-)
It’s Avogadro’s constant. The number of carbon atoms in 12 grams of carbon.

Wait. They redefined it in 2019 but I thought that “new” way was what I did in school 🤔
Three Twentysix explains it brilliantly
I love this image, and this was one of my favorite numbers in science too. Sometimes I think it’s more difficult to imagine how insanely small the atomic scale is than how insanely large the cosmic scale is.
