In order to “measure” such numbers‚ we often use one measured quantity and another known property to calculate the unknown value. In this experiment‚ we will use this approach to calculate the thickness of various types of aluminum foil‚ a quantity whose direct experimental

The lab “Aluminum Atoms” was designed to determine whether heavy-duty or house hold aluminum foil was the thicker than the other and to show the different atomic calculations of each type of foil. It was learned that heavy-duty foil is thicker than the household aluminum foil. An atom is the basic unit of a chemical element. Avogardo’s number‚ 6.02 x 1023‚ is the number of particles found in one mole of a substance. The molar mass is the weight of one mole (or 6.02 x 1023 molecules) of any chemical
