Abstract
FROM THE SIZE OF AVOGADRO’S NUMBER, we know that even small amounts of material contain an enormous number of formula units. As a consequence, a person cannot follow the detailed motions of the molecules, radicals, ions, or electrons therein. Nevertheless, one can get at the collective behavior of these.
