I understand that the one mole of atoms is equal to 6.02×1023 atoms. However, when I used various resources to learn about stoichiometry, they showed me a balanced equation:
2HX2O⟶2HX2+OX2
and said "2 moles of water" decomposed to form "2 moles of molecular hydrogen" and "1 mole of molecular oxygen". It is my understanding that there are only 2 molecules of water, not 2×6.02×1023 molecules of water and so on with the other parts of the equation as well. Could someone please clear up my confusion?
