Mole Day

Celebrated annually on October 23 from 6:02 a.m. to 6:02 p.m., Mole Day commemorates "Avogadro's Number": 6.02 x 1023. This number--called a mole--is a basic measuring unit in chemistry. Mole Day typically falls during National Chemistry Week.

National Chemistry Week

In 1986, George Pimentel, then ACS president, had an idea to better educate the public about the crucial role of chemistry in everyday life. ACS organized its first official National Chemistry Day on Nov. 6, 1987. By 1989, the ACS Board had approved National Chemistry Day, and it became an annual celebration, held every year in late October. In 1993, it was renamed National Chemistry Week.

What is Mole Day?

Celebrated annually on October 23 from 6:02 a.m. to 6:02 p.m., Mole Day commemorates Avogadro's Number (6.02 x 10²³), which is a basic measuring unit in chemistry. Mole Day was created as a way to foster interest in chemistry. Schools throughout the United States and around the world celebrate Mole Day with various activities related to chemistry and/or moles.

For a given molecule, one mole is a mass (in grams) whose number is equal to the molar mass of the molecule. For example, the water molecule has an molar mass of 18, therefore one mole of water weighs 18 grams. Similarly, a mole of neon has a molar mass of 20 grams. In general, one mole of any substance contains Avogadro's Number of molecules or atoms of that substance. This relationship was first discovered by Amedeo Avogadro (1776-1858) and he received credit for this after his death.

Avogadro vs. Avocado... GuacaMOLE... 🤔

If the PTB pits Mole Day against National Avocado Day on one combined holiday, they could kill two birds with one stone.

I opened the thread expecting to see the Biden regime celebrating Ariane Tabatabai.

Happy Mole Day, Ariane Tabatabai!

It's like what they say in the bullfighting ring, only different.

Molé!

Talk about timing. It's all fun and games until someone gets gourd.

I learn something new every day:

Etymology 1

Unknown. Often supposed to be from Arabic الله (allāh, “God!”), used e.g. to express surprise, excitement, etc., and/or from related وَاللهِ (wa-llāhi, “by God!”), used as an oath or strong agreement. The Spanish Arabist Federico Corriente, however, described this derivation as "falsos arabismos" (false Arabism) in his work Diccionario de Arabismos y Voces Afines en Iberorromance.[2][3]

olé

I mean, just look at how that crosses over to "Walla!", and Bob's your uncle. Then again, that's chiefly British.

Makes sense, though... this was a red-letter day in the history of the future, but you really have to tunnel:

October 23

Events

2015, Friday: Queen Diana visits Washington according to the October 22 issue of USA Today.

Yeah, well history is gonna change.

I just sent it to my daughter who has a Ph.D. in Chemistry. She thought it was pretty funny, too.
