    The document discusses the mole concept in chemistry, which defines the mole as the amount of substance containing the same number of elementary entities as atoms in 0.012kg of carbon-12. The idea of chemical equivalents predated the mole concept, referring to specific amounts of substances that could react to the same extent. The term 'mole' originated from the German word for molecular weight.

    In chemistry the mole is a fundamental unit in the SI system, and it is used to measure the
    amount of substance. This quantity is sometimes referred to as the chemical amount. In
    Latin mole means a "massive heap" of material and it is convenient to think of a chemical mole
    as such.
    The mole is the amount of a substance of a system which contains as many elementary
    entities as there are atoms in 0.012 kilogram of carbon-12. When the mole is used, the
    elementary entities must be specified and may be atoms, molecules, ions, electrons, other
    particles, or specified groups of such particles.
    Long before the mole concept was developed, there existed the idea of chemical equivalency in
    that specific amounts of various substances could react in a similar manner and to the same
    extent with another substance. The idea of chemical equivalents was stated by Henry
    Cavendish in 1767, clarified by Jeremias Richter in 1795, and popularized by William Wollaston
    in 1814. Wollaston applied the concept to elements and defined it in such a way that one
    equivalent of an element corresponded to its atomic mass. Thus, when Wollaston's equivalent is
    expressed in grams, it is identical to a mole. It is not surprising then that the word "mole" is
    derived from "molekulargewicht" (German, meaning "molecular weight") and was coined in 1901
    or 1902.
