Line 48:
In honor of Avogadro's contributions to molecular theory, the number of molecules in one mole was named ''[[Avogadro's number]]'', N<sub>A</sub> or "Avogadro's constant". It is approximately 6.0221415 × 10<sup>23</sup>. Avogadro's number is used to compute the results of chemical reactions. It allows chemists to determine the exact amounts of substances produced in a given reaction.
[[Johann Josef Loschmidt]] first calculated the value of Avogadro's number, often referred to as the [[Loschmidt number]] in German-speaking countries ([[Loschmidt constant]] now has another meaning).
