What is the value of percent atom economy if the molar mass of reactants is $36 \ u$ and the mass of the desired product is $27 \ u$ (in $\%$)?

The mass percentage composition of dry air at sea level is approximately $N_2: 63 \%$, $O_2: 16 \%$, $Kr: 21 \%$. If the total pressure is $p \ atm$, calculate the partial pressure of each component respectively. (Molecular weights: $N_2 = 28, O_2 = 32, Kr = 84$)

If $1\frac{1}{2}$ moles of oxygen combine with $Al$ to form $Al_2O_3$,the weight of $Al$ used in the reaction is ............. $g$ $(Al=27)$.
