What is the mass in grams of 5.40 moles of lithium.
Maslowich
You would use the formula:

n = \frac{m}{M}

Where m is the mass, and M is molar mass (the periodic table would be used for this)

In this case, we need to rearrange the formula to find m

m = nM
    = 5.40 x 6.941
    = 37.5g

Hope this helped! Ask me if there's any part of the working you don't understand :)
