Why are there no compounds named cyclomethane or cycloethane. Why don't we make the Avogadro constant some convenient round number such as 1 x 10 25?

Cyclomethane and cycloethane: "cyclo" referes to a closed shape (triangle, square, pentagon, hexagon, etc.), for that you need at least three points (in this case carbon). Therefore it is impossible to make a "cyclo" structure with one dot/carbon (methane) or two dot/carbon (ethane)
Avogadro's constant: It was the original value, and to honour the scientist who discovered it, the scientific comunity is keeping it that way. It's just the way things are: why does a dozen = 12 and not something like 10? Why is pi or e such a weird number? etc.

Does 1.0 mole of carbon contain Avogadro's number of particles?
Yes. 1 mole of all elements (including carbon) or compounds contain Avogadro number of particles (6.023 x 1023 particles)
Is it true that Avogadro did experiments to determine Avogadro's number?
Is it true that Avogadro did experiments to determine Avogadro's number?
Does the mass of the atom effect the size of the mole?
A mole represents a number of Avogadro's Constant. It is same as naming 12 units a dozen. It is not related with the weight of atoms, molecules, ions or compounds.
What did Avogadro?
1. The number of Avogadro is number of atoms, ions molecules in a mole of substance(A = 6,022 140 857.10e23).2. Law of Avogadro: equal volumes of gases (at the same temperature and pressure) have the same number of molecules.
