    Meaning of Coefficients

    Coefficients in a balanced equation determine the relative number of moles, volumes of gases (at the same temperature and pressure), and particles (molecules or atoms) of each substance involved in a reaction.

    Law of Conservation of Mass

    The total mass of reactants in a closed system must equal the total mass of products.

    Study Notes

    Stoichiometry

    • Stoichiometry is the study of quantitative relationships between reactants and products in chemical reactions
    • It comes from Greek words: stoichio (element) and metri (measure)

    Understanding Coefficients

    • Coefficients in balanced equations indicate the ratio of moles, gas volumes (same temperature and pressure), and particles (molecules or atoms) of each substance
    • Coefficients do not represent the ratio of grams, because molar masses are different

    Law of Conservation of Mass

    • The total mass of reactants equals the total mass of products
    • Mass is neither created nor destroyed in a chemical reaction, only converted

    Using Proportions

    • Proportions can solve stoichiometry problems
    • Example: 12 slices of bread require 6 slices of cheese (12/2 = x/1, x = 6)

    The Bridge Method

    • A shortcut for solving proportions
    • Involves dividing and multiplying
      • Divide by the coefficient of the starting substance
      • Multiply by the coefficient of the ending substance
    • Example: Finding cheese for 12 slices of bread (12/2 * 1 = 6)

    Examples Using the Bridge Method

    • Different examples demonstrate the method
    • Example: 9 slices cheese = 18 slices bread

    Stoichiometry Basics

    • Stoichiometry studies the amounts of substances in reactions
    • Two types of bridges are used: Little Bridge and Big Bridge

    Little Bridge

    • Used for moles, liters, or particles
    • Formula: (given coefficient * coefficient of unknown * molar mass of unknown) / (coefficient of given)
    • No molar mass required for moles or liters

    Big Bridge

    • Used for grams
    • Formula: (given mass * coefficient of given * molar mass of unknown) / (coefficient of given * molar mass of given)
    • Requires molar mass information

    Examples

    • Provides examples in different contexts (moles of O2, liters of O2, grams problems)

    Double Checking

    • Double check by using additional calculations
    • Results of Big Bridged method can be added to another calculation to get the expected answer

    Balancing Equations

    • Balanced equations are needed for stoichiometry problems
    • Example: 2CO + O2 → 2CO2 (balanced for the reaction between carbon monoxide and oxygen)

    Big Bridge Method

    • Method for solving problems involving grams
    • A series of division and multiplication steps to calculate the desired amount

    Key Differences Between Methods

    • Big Bridge: used for grams
    • Little Bridge: used for molecules, liters, or moles
