Have you mastered calculating reactants and products? Put your stoichiometry skills to the test with a quiz. Your turn – stoichiometry calculations \(\ce{CO}\) reacts with \(\ce{O}_{2}\) to form \(\ce{CO}_{2}\) gas as shown by the equation: \[2\ce{CO}+\ce{O}_{2}\rightarrow2\ce{CO}_{2}\] Calculate the amount in moles of \(\ce{O2}\) required to react with \(0.58\textrm{ mol}\) of...

The ability to complete calculations using moles is very important in chemistry. Test yourself with a quiz. Your turn – mole calculations Aspirin has the formula \(\ce{C}_{9}\ce{H}_{8}\ce{O}_{4}\). Calculate the mass of aspirin in grams present in \(0.650\textrm{ mol}\) of aspirin. The molar masses of \(\ce{C}\), \(\ce{H}\) and \(\ce{O}\) are \(12.01\textrm{...

In our daily lives, from the food we eat to the fuel that powers our vehicles, stoichiometry plays a crucial role in ensuring that chemical processes are efficient and effective. Improve your knowledge of stoichiometry by using this resource to learn about the stoichiometric coefficient, the molar ratio and chemical...

The mole (\(n\)) is an important unit of measurement in chemistry because it allows scientists to count and quantify atoms, molecules, and ions in a given sample. This then allows them to perform calculations relating to chemical reactions. In everyday language, we use \(1\) dozen \(=12\) object, \(1\) dozen \(=10\)...

Chemistry often deals with quantities (amounts) of chemicals. How do we use units to describe them? What do moles have to do with chemistry? How do we measure the mass of different components in a chemical reaction? Unit conversions, the mole, and stoichiometry are explained here. Overview Units and conversions...
