Molecules


Molecules

 

A mole is an animal digging tunnels in the ground.

Or a spot on your chin you have to shave around.

But this mole is different.

We celebrate a number known throughout history.

Used in a subject known as chemistry.

What does the mole enable?

Elements from the periodic table.

6.02 x 10 to the 23rd power

Thanks to Amadeo Avogadro, the man of the hour

From atoms, to ions, bromide

This number can be found

And in compounds, like sodium chloride

October 23rd

This year theme Mole-O’ween

7 days before Halloween
