CHAPTER 12 STOICHIOMETRY Chemistry 12.1 CHAPTER 12 STOICHIOMETRY

The Arithmetic of Equations 12.1 The Arithmetic of Equations More than 3000 cocoons are needed to produce enough silk to make just one elegant Japanese kimono. Like silk manufacturers, chemists must know how much reactant they need to make a certain amount of product. Determining the quantities of reactants and products in a reaction requires a balanced chemical equation.

Using Everyday Equations 12.1 Using Everyday Equations Using Everyday Equations How is a balanced equation like a recipe?

Using Everyday Equations 12.1 Using Everyday Equations A balanced chemical equation provides the same kind of quantitative information that a recipe does. A cookie recipe tells you the number of cookies that you can expect to make from the listed amounts of ingredients. Using Models How can you express a cookie recipe as a balanced equation?

Using Balanced Chemical Equations 12.1 Using Balanced Chemical Equations Using Balanced Chemical Equations How do chemists use balanced chemical equations?

Using Balanced Chemical Equations 12.1 Using Balanced Chemical Equations Chemists use balanced chemical equations to calculate how much reactant is needed or how much product is formed in a reaction. The calculation of quantities in chemical reactions is a subject of chemistry called stoichiometry.

Interpreting Chemical Equations 12.1 Interpreting Chemical Equations A balanced chemical equation can be interpreted in terms of different quantities, including numbers of atoms, molecules, or moles; mass; and volume.

Interpreting Chemical Equations 12.1 Interpreting Chemical Equations Number of Atoms The balanced chemical equation for the formation of ammonia can be interpreted in several ways. Predicting How many molecules of NH3 could be made from 5 molecules of N2 and 15 molecules of H2?

Chemical Calculations 12.2 Chemical Calculations The effectiveness of car’s air bags is based on the rapid conversion of a small mass of sodium azide into a large volume of gas. The entire reaction occurs in less than a second. You will learn how to use a balanced chemical equation to calculate the amount of product formed in a chemical reaction.

Writing and Using Mole Ratios 12.2 Writing and Using Mole Ratios In chemical calculations, mole ratios are used to convert between moles of reactant and moles of product, between moles of reactants, or between moles of products.

Writing and Using Mole Ratios 12.2 Writing and Using Mole Ratios Mole-Mole Calculations A mole ratio is a conversion factor derived from the coefficients of a balanced chemical equation interpreted in terms of moles.

12.2 Manufacturing plants produce ammonia by combining nitrogen with hydrogen. Ammonia is used in cleaning products, fertilizers, and in the manufacture of other chemicals.

Limiting Reagent and Percent Yield 12.3 Limiting Reagent and Percent Yield If a carpenter had two tabletops and seven table legs, he could only build one four-legged table. The number of table legs is the limiting factor in the construction of four-legged tables. Similarly, in chemistry, the amount of product made in a chemical reaction may be limited by the amount of one or more of the reactants.

Limiting and Excess Reagents 12.3 Limiting and Excess Reagents In a chemical reaction, an insufficient quantity of any of the reactants will limit the amount of product that forms. The limiting reagent is the reagent that determines the amount of product that can be formed by a reaction.

Limiting and Excess Reagents 12.3 Limiting and Excess Reagents In the reaction of nitrogen and hydrogen, hydrogen is the limiting reagent. Nitrogen is the reagent that is not completely used up in the reaction. The reagent that is not used up is called the excess reagent.

Percent Yield 12.3 What does the percent yield of a reaction measure?

A batting average is actually a percent yield. 12.3 Percent Yield The percent yield is a measure of the efficiency of a reaction carried out in the laboratory. A batting average is actually a percent yield. A batting average is actually a percent yield.

12.3 Percent Yield The percent yield is the ratio of the actual yield to the theoretical yield expressed as a percent.
