A Short Review 2
The molar mass of an element is its atomic mass in grams/mol. It contains 6.022 x 10 23 atoms (Avogadro s number) of the element. The molar mass of a compound is the sum of the atomic masses of all its atoms of each element. 3
Calculate the molar mass of C 2 H 6 O. 2 C = 2(12.01 g) = 24.02 g 6 H = 6(1.01 g) = 6.06 g 1 O = 1(16.00 g) = 16.00 g 46.08 g/mol 4
For calculations of mole-mass-volume relationships in a chemical equation. The chemical equation must be balanced by using smallest whole number coefficients. The coefficient in front of a formula represents the number of moles, atoms, ions or molecules, of the reactant or product. The equation is balanced. 2Al + Fe 2 2 O 3 Fe + Al 2 O 3 2 mol 1 mol 2 mol 1 mol 5
Introduction to Stoichiometry: The Mole Ratio Method 6
Stoichiometry: The area of chemistry that deals with the quantitative relationships between reactants and or products. Mole Ratio: A ratio between the moles of any two substances involved in a chemical reaction (Conversion Factor). The coefficients used in mole ratio expressions are derived from the coefficients used in the balanced equation. 7

The mole ratio is used to convert moles of one substance to moles of another substance in a stoichiometry problem. mole ratio mol. H 2 mol. N 2 The mole ratio is used to solve every type of stoichiometry problem. 11
The Mole Ratio Method: Step by Step 1. Convert the quantity of starting substance to moles (if it is not already in moles) 2. Convert the moles of starting substance to moles of desired substance. 3. Convert the moles of desired substance to the units specified (i.e. grams, molecules, atoms, etc.) in the problem. 12

Limiting-Reactant and Yield Calculations 23
Limiting Reactant 24
A limiting reactant is a reactant in a chemical reaction with insufficient mass to react with all the mass of the other reactant(s) present. The limiting reactant limits the amount of product that can be formed. 25

Steps Used to Determine the Limiting Reactant 27
1. Calculate the moles of each reactant (This is what you HAVE). 2. Convert moles of each reactant to moles of the other reactant (This is what you NEED). 3. Determine limiting reactant by: HAVE NEED > 0 ; NOT LIMITING HAVE NEED < 0 ; LIMITING 4. Excess reactant is the difference between: HAVE NEED of NON- LIMITING reactant. 28

Reaction Yield 37
The quantities of products calculated from equations represent the maximum yield (100%) of product according to the reaction represented by the equation. 38
Many reactions fail to give a 100% yield of product. This occurs because of: side reactions purification steps reversible reactions 39
The theoretical yield of a reaction is the calculated amount of product that can be obtained from a given amount of reactant. The actual yield is the amount of product actually obtained from a given amount of reactant. 40
The percent yield of a reaction is the ratio of the actual yield to the theoretical yield multiplied by 100. actual yield theoretical yield x 100 = percent yield 41
