Study Notes
Mole Ratios in Chemical Reactions
- Mole ratios show the amount of one substance required to react with another substance in a chemical reaction.
Importance of Balanced Chemical Equations
- A chemical equation must be balanced before determining the mole ratio to ensure accurate calculations.
- Stoichiometry problems always start with a balanced equation to ensure accurate calculations.
Using Mole Ratios in Stoichiometry
- Mole ratios are used to calculate the amount of a substance in a chemical reaction.
- The purpose of stoichiometry is to determine the amount of a substance in a chemical reaction.
- Mole ratios are used to find the amount of one substance if the amount of another substance is known.
Mole Ratios and Coefficients
- The coefficients in a balanced chemical equation represent the mole ratios of the reactants and products.
Purpose of Mole Ratios
- The purpose of using mole ratios is to determine the amount of one substance if the amount of another substance is known.
Calculating Mass of a Substance
- To find the mass of a substance when the moles of another substance are given, the mole ratio and molar mass must be used.
Stoichiometry Process
- The process of using mole ratios to determine how much of one substance will be present if the amount of another substance is known is called stoichiometry.
- Stoichiometry can be used to find the mass or moles of a substance when the moles or mass of another substance in a reaction are given.
Writing Mole Ratios
- The given amount and mole ratio are written as a fraction, with the given amount as the numerator and the mole ratio as the denominator.
Role of Molar Mass
- Molar masses are used in stoichiometry to convert between moles and mass.
Units in Stoichiometry
- The units for the moles of the given substance and the moles of the substance being calculated must be the same in stoichiometry problems.
Balancing Chemical Equations
- The purpose of balancing a chemical equation is to ensure that the mole ratios are accurate.
