Verified step by step guidance1
Understand that the problem is asking for the numerical value of a mole, which is a fundamental concept in chemistry representing the number of particles (atoms, molecules, ions, etc.) in one mole of a substance.
Recall that the mole is defined by Avogadro's number, which is the number of particles in exactly one mole of a substance.
Avogadro's number is a constant and is approximately equal to \$6.022 \times 10^{23}$ particles per mole.
Compare the given options to this known value to identify the correct numerical value representing a mole.
Conclude that the correct answer is the option closest to \$6.022 \times 10^{23}$, which is the accepted value for Avogadro's number.
