Determination of the relative atomic mass of lithium Introduction As part of my AS chemistry unit, I was given an assessed practical to do. The aim of this practical is to determine the relative atomic mass of lithium. I will do this by the combination of two different methods. Method 1: - By measuring the volume of hydrogen produced Method 2: - By titrating the lithium hydroxide produced Method 1 I set up my experiment as previously shown with the correct size equipment in the correct places. But before I began the actual practical part of the assessment, I had measure the amount of lithium I had. Lithium is reactive with air, so I had to measure it in a specific way. Firstly I sliced an appropriate part of lithium with a knife and put it in a Petri dish. I then weighed the Petri dish occupied by the lithium which was 3.40g and to calculate...
