Mol is the unit of amount of substance. It is equal to 6.02 x 10^23 molecules. Now, One mol of Sodium chloride (NaCl) contains 6.022x 10^23 molecules of NaCl. Also, the number atoms of both Na (sodium) and Cl (chlorine) will be equal. Similatly, One mol of Aluminium Chloride (AlCl3) contains 6.022x 10^23 molecules of (AlCl3) but the ratio of Al and Cl atoms will be 1:3
