mmol meaning in General ?

The mole (symbol: mol) is the base unit of amount of substance in the International System of Units (SI). It is defined as exactly 6.02214076×1023 elementary entities ("particles"), which may be atoms, molecules, ions, or electrons.

The definition of mole was adopted in November 2018 as one of the seven SI base units, revising the previous definition that specified one mole as the amount of substance in 12 grams of carbon-12 (12C), an isotope of carbon.

The number 6.02214076×1023 (the Avogadro number) was chosen so that the mass of one mole of a chemical compound in grams is numerically equal, for most practical purposes, to the average mass of one molecule of the compound in daltons. Thus, for example, one mole of water (H2O) contains 6.02214076×1023 molecules, whose total mass is about 18.015 grams and the mean mass of one molecule of water is about 18.015 daltons.

The mole is widely used in chemistry as a convenient way to express amounts of reactants and products of chemical reactions. For example, the chemical equation 2H2 + O2 → 2H2O can be interpreted to mean that for each 2 mol dihydrogen (H2) and 1 mol dioxygen (O2) that react, 2 mol of water (H2O) form. The mole may also be used to measure the amount of atoms, ions, electrons, or other entities. The concentration of a solution is commonly expressed by its molarity, defined as the amount of dissolved substance in mole(s) per unit volume of solution, for which the unit typically used is moles per litre (mol/L), commonly abbreviated M.

The term gram-molecule (g mol) was formerly used for "mole of molecules", and gram-atom (g atom) for "mole of atoms". For example, 1 mole of MgBr2 is 1 gram-molecule of MgBr2 but 3 gram-atoms of MgBr2.
