In one mole, there are 6.022 x 10 23 atoms. Here's another way: there are 6.022 x 10 23 atoms of carbon in 12 grams of carbon-12. Let's say that real clearly: one mole of ANYTHING contains 6.022 x 10 23 entities. The word entities is simply a generic word.
Shadow zone. A seismic shadow zone is an area of the Earth's surface where seismographs cannot detect an earthquake after its seismic waves have passed through the Earth. When an earthquake occurs, seismic waves radiate out spherically from the earthquake's focus.
After such a distance, waves disappeared almost completely until the slow surface waves arrived. The area beyond 105 forms what is called a SHADOW ZONE. At greater distances some P waves would arrive but no S waves. From this, researchers determined the Earth's core is fluid and moltne.
