'''Avogadro's Principle''' is a fundamental assumption in [[statistical mechanics]] that all [[ideal gas]]es at equal [[volume]], [[temperature]] and [[pressure]] have the same number of [[molecule]]s.
Avogadro's principle is a principle rather than a [[Scientific method|law]] (a summary of experience) because it depends on the validity of a model, in this case the existence of molecules. Despite there now being no doubt about the existence of molecules, it is still a model-based principle rather than a law.
