STOICHIOMETRY

What is Stoichiometry?•Stoichiometry is the part of chemistry that studies amounts of reactants and products that are involved in reactions.

•Chemists use a balanced chemical equation as a basis to calculate how much reactant is used or product that is produced in a reaction.

•A balanced chemical equation can be interpreted in terms of different quantities, including number of atoms, molecules, or moles.

•In a balanced chemical equation, the coefficient in an equation represents not only numbers of individual molecules but also numbers of moles.

•The basis for stoichiometry is the law of conservation of mass, which states the mass of the reactants will equal the mass of the products.
