What is stoichiometry?
the mathematical calculation of relative products and reactants in a balanced chemical equation
What is the term for the ratio between the coefficients of any two reactants or products in a balanced chemical equation?
mole ratio
Calculate Molar mass of HCl (round to 2 decimal points)
36.46 g/mol
What is another name for limiting reagents?
limiting reactants
What do the coefficients in a balanced equation tell us?
the number of moles present for each substance
How can you tell when something is going to be a mole ratio problem?
When there is only one number given (in moles), and the other number the question is asking for is also in moles
Calculate Molar Mass of K2(SO4)
174.26 g/mol
After you have completed your two equations when doing a limiting reagent problem, how can you tell which is the limiting reagent?
the reactant that produces the smallest amount of product
Stoichiometry must always start with a ________________ chemical equation.
balanced
If 3 moles Al2O3 decompose, how many moles of oxygen are produced? 2Al2O3 -> 4Al + 3O2
4.5 moles O2
Calculate Molar mass of ammonium carbonate
96.09 g/mol
What is a limiting reactant? (What does it do?)
A limiting reactant in a chemical reaction is the substance that -Is used up first -Stops the reaction -Limits the amount of product that can form
What is the difference between molecules and formula units?
molecules is a term used for covalent compounds and formula units is a term used for ionic compounds
If 3.6 moles of C2H2 are burned, how many moles of CO2 are produced? 2C2H2 + 5O2 --> 4CO2 + 2H2O
7.2 moles CO2
6.50 grams of aluminum reacts with an excess of oxygen. How many grams of aluminum oxide are formed? 4Al + 3O2 --> 2Al2O3
12.3 g Al2O3
How can you tell if a problem is a limiting reagent problem (other than it specifically saying so)?
You will have two givens that are the amounts of two reactants in grams
What are two things that are always conserved in a chemical reaction?
mass, matter (atoms)
Write the balanced chemical equation for the reaction between hydrochloric acid and calcium carbonate when the products of the reaction are calcium chloride, carbon dioxide, and water.
2HCl + CaCO3 ---> CaCl2 + CO2 + H2O
If 10.1 g of Fe are added to a solution of Copper (II) Sulfate, how many grams of solid copper would form? 2Fe + 3CuSO4 --> Fe2(SO4)3 + 3Cu
17.2g Cu
50g of Al are added to 100g HCl, how many grams of H2 are produced? 2Al + 6HCl --> 2AlCl3 + 3H2
2.74g H2
