Stoichiometry

The Basics of Stoichiometry:

Step 1: Convert amount of substance A from grams to moles
Step 2: Multiply by coefficient/molarity ratio
Step 3: Convert substance B from moles to grams

And that is all.....until you get to alterations.

Stoichiometry is all about taking that basic process of solving a problem and changing it and manipulating it to get the desired answer.

  2. Marie, this was a great post to introduce the topic of Stoichiometry. I enjoyed how you simplified the lesson into the three steps at the beginning then proceeded to add a more complex picture with details in the conversions. Also, your videos were very helpful at this introductory stage. Thanks for sharing!
