When he moved back to Florence‚ he made a request to be allowed to go to a church to attend mass‚ he was never excommunicated by the church for his believes in science. His remains were buried at the Church entrance when he died. In 1820‚ the censorship of Copernicanism was withdrawn by the Holy Office‚ taken on the discoveries made by two Italian

Mole Essay Julissa Garcia Leon Andre Agassi College Preparatory Academy A mole is a scientific unit developed by chemist that measures large quantities of very small things‚ such as atoms‚ molecules‚ and other particles. There are three types of molar conversions; moles to particles or particles to moles‚ moles to mass or mass to moles‚ and moles to volume or volume to moles. The number of units in a mole is 6.02 × 1023. This number is called Avogadro’s number in honour of Amedeo Avogadro
