Question for Madscientist
Hey man, do you remember those books I told you about? Well I was wondering if I need to get really good at what was in the one before moving on to
the Langes one. I just want to know if I should just read it then go on to the next book or if I should get really good with the one then move on....

Lange's is a reference book, not a textbook. You won't read straight through it (unless you are remarkably bereft of other amusements). Madscientist
won't be answering any questions for a while because he's gone on a trip for a week. I'll be gone for more than a week myself starting this coming
Friday, so hopefully he'll be back by then.

Hehe, I forgot about that trip of his...
I had forgotten he had mentioned he would be gone for a while... You think he will be back this Friday? Well anyway, I know that Lange's is only a
reference book, but what I had meant is, do I really need to understand things such as what a mole is before I move on to it, or do I just need to get
a basic idea of what chemistry is?

A mole is the SI unit for amount of substance. The quantity of a substance that contains as many molecules or formula units as there are atoms in
exactly 12 g of carbon-12. Thus, one mole of oxygen [0]= 16g. One mole of Chlorine [Cl] = 35.45g, etc.

Lol, its ok Psyhco. Im pretty sure someone out here was benifit by that info. You should consider making a post with the moles for all of the
elements. (I wouldnt do them all, just some though...)
