Let suppose you have a large vat or container of I 2 (diatomic iodide), I tell you there is a total of 6 moles in some container. If there are 6 moles of the molecule I 2, how many individual moles of I exist in this same container? You could suggest none because it is all in the form of I 2 and that is not a bad answer, but thinking mathematically, from the information I gave you, how many moles of I (iodide) atoms exist in there?

Sulfur dioxide gas (SO2) reacts with excess oxygen gas (O2) and excess liquid water (H2O) to form liquid sulfuric acid (H2SO4). In the laboratory, a chemist carries out this reaction with 67.2 L of sulfur dioxide and gets 250 g of sulfuric acid. Write a balanced equation for the reaction. Calculate the theoretical yield of sulfuric acid. Calculate the percent yield of the reaction. (One mole of any gas occupies 22.4 L under certain conditions of temperature and pressure. Assume those conditions for this question.)
