  1. 1.)we us the mole in chemistry to count molecules,atoms,just about anything extremely small.
    2.)we don’t use moles outside of chemistry mainly because people just don’t understand how much it is.

  2. 1.We use the mole in chemistry to count molecules, atoms and just about anything small.
    2. We don’t use moles outside of chem because many people don’t understand how big a mole is.

  3. 1). We use the mole in chemistry to count molecules, atoms, or any kind of extremely small particles.

    2). We don’t use the mole outside of chemistry because when used to measure anything other than small particles it is actually a very large amount, anything other than chemicals or particles can be measured with whichever measure seems more logical (ex. dozen, ream, etc.)

  4. 1) We use the mole is chemistry to be able to count particles such as atoms, molecules and ions.

    2) We don’t use moles outside of chemistry because it’s mainly used for items that are extremely small and people wouldn’t understand it as easily as saying “a dozen of eggs.” It’s hard for the human brain to understand the concept of a mole and how much particles it really is.

  5. 1) why do we use a mole in chemistry?
    To count stuff extremely small. Chemists use it to refer to molar quantities.

    2) Why don’t we use the moles outside of chemistry? (i.e, why aren’t eggs sold by the mole?)
    A Moles is such a big number and if you were to have a mole of eggs it would cover the earth so we don’t need to use such a large number.

  6. We use the Mole in chemistry to measure anything that is very small. For example it is used to count atoms
    They measure things that are really small like atoms, molecules, and other particles. If you had a mole of eggs, then that means you have 602,214,076,000,000,000,000,000 eggs. So people outside of chemistry don’t use moles to measure.

  7. 1. We use moles in chemistry to count molecules, atoms, and about anything extremely small.

    2. We don’t use moles outside of chemistry b/c the other quantities are more familiar to us.

  8. 1.) Moles in chemistry are used to determine the relative amount of atoms molecules and other small things.
    2.) We wouldn’t use moles outside of chemistry because there are different quantities for certain things. We use pounds for somethings ounces for others etc. We would not use moles to measure eggs but rather when we buy eggs we buy them by the dozen.

  9. 1: The mole is a concept that we use in chemistry to count molecules, atoms, and just about about anything small.
    2: The reason we don’t use the moles outside of chemistry is because all the other quantities are more familiar to us. For example, When we buy eggs we call it a dozen of eggs not a mole.

  10. 1. We use the mole to count anything extremely small.
    2. Moles are used to count things extremely small such as atoms therefore its very hard to picture the size of a mole so its not used outside of chemistry.

  11. 1.) The mole was created by Avogadro and it is a SI unit of measurement that is used to count extremely small things like atoms or molecules.
    2.) The mole isn’t used outside of chemistry because not everything is too small to be measured. There are other units of measurement that would make more sense and be easier to count than moles. For example It would be simpler to say 1 pound rather than 453.59237 Moles.

  12. we use mole in chemistry to know how much is in a atom

    people dont use moles outside of chemistry because it is not familiar with people

  13. 1.)We use the mole in chemistry to count atoms and molecules or anything very small in chemistry because of the amount there is of them.
    2.)We don’t use moles outside of chemistry because that number is too large to use for anything and not even everyone knows what that number is. A mole is not as common as other words like dozen or pair.

  14. 1.) We use the mole in chemistry due to atoms and molecules being so small, helping us actually compare and count these atoms.
    2.) It wouldn’t be possible using a mole outside of chemistry due to its size. If you were to order eggs using moles it would be like ordering more than the worlds amount of eggs.

  15. 1.) We use the mole in chemistry to determine the number of molecules, atoms, or very small molecular objects.
    2.) We don’t use moles outside of chemistry because objects are way bigger and people are used to saying pounds, grams, etc. Also, people don’t understand how small a mole is and can’t connect it to actual objects.

  16. 1) A mole is used to count anything small, molecules,atoms..etc.
    2)We dont use it outside of chemistry because who even knows what a mole is, if you are not a chemist or a chemistry student then you probably never heard about it.

    • —>2) Also moles are very big when it comes to any normal product. That’s why we use different measurements

  17. 1) We use the mole in Chemistry to count molecule, atoms, and just about anything small.
    2) We don’t use moles outside out chemistry because people have a hard time understanding how small the mole really is.

  18. 1. we use the mole in chemistry to count molecules, atoms and anything extremely small
    2. we don’t use the mole outside of chemistry because the other quantities are more familiar to us.

  19. 1. The reason we use the mole in chemistry is to count molecules, atoms, or anything else that is small. 2. We don’t use the mole outside of chemistry due to the fact that not everyone can wrap their heads around the number. Either way, the mole is too big of a number to use outside of chemistry, for example if we had a mole of donuts, it would be able to cover the whole earth to a depth of 8 kilometers.

  20. 1) A mole is a concept that we use in chemistry to count molecules, atoms and just about anything extremely small.
    2) We don’t use moles outside of chemistry because it’s hard for people to imagine the size of a mole.

  21. 1. A mole is a concept we use in Chemistry to count molecules, atoms, and anything that’s extremely small.

    2. We don’t really use moles outside of Chemistry because we have other units that we’re more familiar with.

  22. 1: The mole is used in chemistry to count molecules, atoms, and just anything small
    2: The reason we don’t use moles in chemistry is because the other quantities are more familiar. for example, like the egg example we would be called a dozen of eggs not a mole.

  23. 1). We use moles in chemistry to count only the extremely small particles that make up matter.
    2). We don’t use moles in chemistry because people are not familiar with it or with the amount of it.

  24. 1)We use moles in chemistry because the objects we count, like atom are too small and plentiful to be counted using regular numbers.
    2)Moles aren’t used outside of chemistry because nothing else has the quantity high enough to be counted by a mole

  25. 1. We use moles in chemistry to count things like atoms that are extremely small.

    2. We don’t use moles outside of chemistry because it’s hard to get an understanding of the size of a mole.

  26. 1). We use the mole in chemistry to count small molecules, atoms, or any other extremely small particles.

    2). We don’t use moles outside of chemistry because when used to count anything other than extremely small particles it is actually a large amount. Also, when counting things outside of chemistry we can simply use whichever measurement is most logical (ex. dozen, ream, etc.)

  27. 1. The reason we use the mole in chemistry is to count molecules, atoms, and anything else that is small. 2. We don’t use the mole in chemistry because some people cannot wrap their heads around the topic, making extremely difficult to use.

  33. 1.) We us mole in chemistry to count the smallest quantities of things, such as molecules, particles, and atoms.
    2.) It is not used outside of chemistry because most people aren’t familiar with it.

  34. 1. We use a mole in chemistry to count properties that are part of the chemical reactants, and most importantly atoms and molecules.
    2. We usually do not use the mole in chemistry because first we are not familiar with it and second due to the size of the mole its not practical.

  35. 1) We use moles in chemistry to count molecules, atoms, or anything that is small.
    2)We don’t use moles outside of chemistry because moles are used to count small quantities and people are already familiar with how they say stuff like when they say dozen, pair, ream, etc.

  36. 1) We use the mole in chemistry to count small molecules, atoms, and other extremely small particles.

  40. 1.) We use the mole in chemistry to count atoms, molecules, and formula units.
    2.) The mole isn’t used outside of chemistry because its main purpose is to measure extremely small things. The mole is a very large amount so it’d be very unnecessary and harder to use moles for the smaller quantities we deal with everyday.

  41. 1.) The mole is used in Chemistry to count thew number of atoms, molecules, and/or particles in a certain substance.

    2.) The mole isn’t used outside of chemistry because it is lesser known and that it is a huge number that wouldn’t work in any situation.

  42. 1.) We use the mole in chemistry so we can count the amount of atoms, molecules, and extremely small particles.
    2.) We don’t use the mole outside of chemistry because it’s not as useful or even familiar as the measurement units we already use. Eggs aren’t sold by the mole because we are more familiar to buying eggs by the dozen rather than buying them by the mole.

  45. 1-We use a mole in Chemistry as a concept to count molecules, atoms, or anything extremely small.
    2-We don’t use moles outside of chemistry because because in real life there are terms we use for things in a count or group. A mole is used in chemistry because it involves things that are really small.

  46. 1. We use moles in chemistry to calculate anything small like Molecules, atoms etc
    2. We don’t use it outside of chem because we don’t the exact amount of it

  47. 1) the mole is used in chemistry for counting particles such as atoms, molecules & ions.

    2) We don’t use moles out of chemistry because it’s used mainly for stuff like really small objects and people wouldn’t get it as much as saying “a dozen of cupcakes” It’s hard to get the concept/meaning of a mole and how much particles it really is.

  51. 1/mole is a concept used in chemistry to count molecules, atoms and something extremely small.
    2/mole is used to count extremely small things, it would not be logical to use it with big things because it would be a large amount, it is easier to use other unit of measurement.

  52. 1/Mole is a concept that we use in chemistry to count molecules, atoms and things that are extremely small.
    2/mole is used in chemistry to count things that are extremely small. It would not be logical to use the mole for big things because it will be a very large amount, alos it is easier to use other measurements with the big things.
