1u=1.660*10-27kg
relative mass of the Li=7u=1 atom=1.660*10-27*7kg
7g=6.022*1023 atoms of Li
1kg=1000g
1.660*10-27*7kg=1.660*10-27*7*1000g
1g=(1.660*10-27*7)/(1.660*10-27*7000)
7g={(1.660*10-27*7)/(1.660*10-27*7000)*7} kg
1.660*10-27*7kg=1 atoms
1kg=1/1.660*10-27*7 atoms
{(1.660*10-27*7)/(1.660*10-27*7000)*7} kg=(1/1.660*10-27*7)*{(1.660*10-27*7)/(1.660*10-27*7000)*7}atoms= 6.022*1023

What, exactly, are you asking? Is what true? This is very convoluted.
There are errors in the calculations above:
line 2, the mass of an atom of Li is 6.94 u, but close enough
line 7, remove the "kg" from the end.
line 9, put parentheses around the denominator, otherwise you'll get an error
In the last statement, it looks like what you're saying is:
7 g = 6.022 x 10^23 atoms, which is true. 7 g is the molar mass of Li, which means that 7 g Li = 1 mol Li = 6.022 x 10^23 atoms Li.
