Mole Day is celebrated annually on Oct. 23 from 6:02 a.m. to 6:02 p.m. Mole Day was created to commemorate Avogadro’s number, which is a basic measuring unit in chemistry. Schools throughout the world do various activities related to chemistry or moles on Mole Day. At Francis Howell North, there is a mole making contest and scavenger hunt.
