It's either that it's expected for you guys to take a very long time to guess the right answer, or vice versa.

It is not a gemstone, nor is it Perovskite.

How many atoms in a gram of the substance? I expect you to count them.

Have fun.

Actually you're ?s bad.
It should be along the lines of 'number of particles in gram of carbom-12'
or however Avagandro's number is figured.
I'm just surprised I remembered it.

Yes to DC.

Re Avogadro's constant: that's the number of carbon 12 atoms that weigh 12 grams, not the number that weigh 1 gram. It's the number of particles in a mole.

I thought it was more 6.023 * 10^23.

Or at least, that's what our exam board is telling us.

"The 2006 CODATA recommended value (for the Avogadro constant) is 6.02214179(30)×1023"
Your exam board is wrong.

If you mean as part of the atmospheric gases, no. If you mean present in areas which have atmosphere, yes.

Well, I actually meant the former, but okay...

Is it a solid at room temperature?

6.022x1023 is Avagandro's number.
Just shortened.

Most of it is solid at room temperature.

And it's spelt "Avogadro."
