Study Notes
Chemical Equations and Reaction Stoichiometry
- Chemical reactions involve changing one or more substances into one or more different substances.
- Chemical equations are used to describe chemical reactions, showing reactants and products.
- Reactants are written to the left of an arrow, and products to the right.
- The relative amounts of reactants and products are shown by the coefficients in the equation.
- A balanced chemical equation has the same number of each kind of atom on both sides of the equation..
- Coefficients in chemical equations represent the number of moles of substances.
- In real-world situations, reactions may not proceed to completion, this could be due to multiple reasons:
- Some reactions do not proceed to completion because the reactants are not completely converted to products.
- Multiple reactions are occurring simultaneously
- Products are difficult to isolate from the reaction mixture.
Limiting Reactants
- The limiting reactant is the reactant that is completely used up first in a reaction.
- The limiting reactant determines the amount of product that can be formed.
- Calculations are often based on the limiting reactant to evaluate the maximum product formed.
