Understanding the Concepts
* Mole (mol): A unit of measurement used to express the amount of a substance. One mole contains 6.022 x 10^23 particles (atoms, molecules, etc.). This number is known as Avogadro's number.
* Avogadro's Number: 6.022 x 10^23
Calculation
1. Start with the given number of moles: 5 moles of lithium
2. Multiply by Avogadro's number: 5 moles * (6.022 x 10^23 atoms/mole)
3. The result is the number of atoms: 3.011 x 10^24 atoms
Therefore, there are approximately 3.011 x 10^24 atoms in 5 moles of lithium.
