Yesterday, we did a lab in class calculating the molar mass of C6H10O5 (starch) and the number of grams per mole of that molecule. We then weighed it out using hole punches...it was about 6.92. Har har. We won the competition because everyone was extremely far off (someone had 18 x_x). 0.3 off, dang. Mr. Olson also spread around hole punches all over the floor. I feel sorry for the person who has to clean that up. The hole punches somehow managed to spread around the whole school. Krystina says she saw some as far away as Taylor and Magnolia. LOL. There were some in my backpack when I got home too. I wonder how long it took Olson to attain all of those holepunches.
A mole is 6.02 x 10^23...
I might have mentioned that already.
My teacher and his friend wrote and performed this catchy song about moles.

I almost aced the molecule test. 94%.
