Explanation of Solution

Anything that takes space and can be weighed is said to be matter, which is composed of atoms, molecules, and ions. The size of these particles is very small and are present in large numbers in a small sample of a substance due to which it is not practical to count the number of particles in a substance. Thus, a “mole (mol)” unit is used by the chemists, which represents a specified number of particles, 6.02×1023 (Avogadro’s number) of that substance.
