Today (July 9, 1856) is the anniversary of Amedeo Avogadro, who discovered the molecule of gases and Avogadro's law.
Lorenzo Romano Amedeo Carlo Avogadro was born on August 9, 1776, in
Turin, Sardinia, Italy. He began his degree and training in ecclesiastical law
in his late 20s. Soon, he devoted himself to physics and mathematics. In 1809
he began teaching at Lyso High School in Versailles. His family lived there
and owned some property. In 1811, he published an article entitled Esai d'Un
Manier de Determiner fewer mass cousins des Molecules alementes des Corps, and
les ratios "Molecules of bodies and the ratios they enter into these
combinations". This is based on the hypothesis of Avocado. Avocado
submitted this article to Jean-Claude Telamateri's Journal de Physic, de Simi
et de Historic Nature ("Journal of Physics, Chemistry and Natural History").
In 1820, he became a professor of physics at the University of Turin.
Avacado was active in the revolutionary movement in March 1821. As a result,
in 1823 he allowed this interesting scientist to retire from rigorous teaching
duties to better focus his research. Finally, King Charles Albert
presented a constitution in 1848. Before this, Avocado was recalled to the
University of Turin in 1833. There he taught for another twenty years. To pay
homage to Avocado's contribution to molecular theory, the Avocado constant for
the number of molecules in a mole of material is exactly 6.02214076 × 10^23
mol^- 1. The Avocado constant is used to calculate the results of chemical
reactions. This allows chemists to determine the amount of material produced in
a given reaction to a large degree of accuracy.
Avogadro's Number is a constant used in chemical calculations. This is a
huge number. An avatar number is the total number of molecules or atoms or ions
in a substance the size of a mole. In short, the avocado number is precisely
the total number of atoms found in 12 g of carbon-12. The number of molecules
in an object the size of a mole is always 6.02214X 10^23 mol^-1. The actual form of
this number is abbreviated in mathematical form. 602 300 000 000 000 000
000 000. For example, one mole contains 18 grams of water, 180 grams of
glucose, 44 grams of carbon dioxide, 32 grams of oxygen, and two grams of
hydrogen molecules. That is the Avogadro number.
Johann Joseph Loshmit first calculated the value of the avocado
constant. The number of particles in a mole is sometimes referred to as the loshmid
number in German-speaking countries. Avocado developed this hypothesis in 1808
after Joseph Louis K.-Lusaka published his law on blocks (combining gases). The
biggest problem Avocado has to solve is the confusion regarding atoms and
molecules. One of his most important contributions is to distinguish clearly
from one another by stating that gases are made of molecules and that these
molecules are made of atoms. (For example, John Dalton did not consider this
possibility.) Avocado did not actually use the word "atom" because
the terms "atom" and "molecule" were used almost
indistinguishably. He believed that there were three types of
"molecules", including the "basic molecule"
("atom"). Also, because of the difference in weight, he paid more
attention to the mass definition.
Avogadro's law is a gas law proposed by Avogadro. Avagadro said that
different gases of the same capacity (equivalent) enclosed in the same shaped
vessel would have the same number (atomic number) of atomic molecules at the
same temperature and at the same pressure. This discovery of his is known by
his name as the fate of Avocado. Amedeo Avogadro, best known for his discovery
of the molecule of gases, and Avogadro's destiny, died on July 9, 1856, at the
age of 79 in Italy.
