Natural lithium is: 7.42% 6Li (6.015 amu) 92.58% 7Li (7.016 amu)
The mole (mol) is the amount of a substance that contains as many elementary entities as there are atoms in exactly 12.00 grams of 12C 1 mol = NA = 6.0221367 x 1023 Avogadros number (NA)
eggs Molar mass is the mass of 1 mole of shoes in grams marbles atoms 1 mole 12C atoms = 6.022 x 1023 atoms = 12.00 g 1 12C atom = 12.00 amu
1 12C atom 12.00 g 1.66 x 10-24 g x = 23 12C atoms 12.00 amu 6.022 x 10 1 amu
Molecular mass (or molecular weight) is the sum of the atomic masses (in amu) in a molecule. 1S SO2 2O SO2 32.07 amu + 2 x 16.00 amu 64.07 amu

Use limiting reagent (Al) to calculate amount of product that can be formed. g Al mol Al 2Al + Fe2O3
124 g Al x 1 mol Al 27.0 g Al x 1 mol Al2O3 2 mol Al
g Al2O3
234 g Al2O3
Theoretical Yield is the amount of product that would result if all the limiting reagent reacted. Actual Yield is the amount of product actually obtained from a reaction. % Yield =
Actual Yield Theoretical Yield x 100
