  • Avogadro's Number - 6.022 × 10²³ atoms, molecules, formula units, etc.

Stoichiometry

  • Using Dimensional Analysis

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Define

2.21 × 10²⁴ atoms Al

Step 2: Identify Conversions

Avogadro's Number

Step 3: Convert

  1. Set up:
    \displaystyle 2.21 \cdot 10^(24) \ atoms \ Al((1 \ mol \ Al)/(6.022 \cdot 10^(23) \ atoms \ Al))
  2. Divide:
    \displaystyle 3.66988 \ mol \ Al

Step 4: Check

Follow sig fig rules and round. We are given 3 sig figs.

3.66988 mol Al ≈ 3.67 mol Al
