Do you think that the mole should be considered a base unit in the si system? explain why or why not.

The International System of Units (S.I.) is the modern form of the metric system, and is the most widely used system of measurement.

It comprises a coherent system of units of measurement built

- on seven base units, which are

(the ampere, kelvin, second, metre, kilogram, candela, mole)

- a set of twenty prefixes to the unit names and unit symbols that may be used when specifying multiples and fractions of the units.

The system also specifies names for 22 derived units, such as lumen and watt, for other common physical quantities.

So, the mole not should be is a base unit in the SI system

hey there!

boiling point is the temperature at which the vapor pressure of the liquid equals atmospheric pressure. the vapor pressure of solvent molecules is decreased when a solute is added, so a higher temperature is required to increase the number of solvent molecules in the gas phase above the liquid.

at the freezing point, the vapor pressures of the solid and liquid are equal; a lower temperature is needed to reduce the number of solvent particles above the liquid.

hope this you
