6.5 Stoichiometry Flashcards
Stoichiometry define and who first discovered it
Calculation method of reactants and products in chemical reactions to find the quantity of one chemical given some quantity of another chemical in that reaction.
First laid down by Jeremias Benjamin Richter.
What do the coefficients in Stoichiometry indicate?
of relative moles, not the absolute # or relative masses. Can use them to find mole ratios.
When hydrogen gas and oxygen gas r mixed and exploded, the product is __
Gaseous water
What does Avogadro’s hypothesis state regarding gases, temp, pressure, and moles?
Equal volumes of gases at the same temperature and pressure contain an equal # of moles.
What is the Law of Combining Volumes and who discovered it?
The volumes of gases involved in chemical reactions measured at the same temp and pressure r in the same ratio as their coefficients in the balanced equation.
Proposed by Gay-Lussac in 1808
What is the Haber Process and who discovered it?
Is fundamental to the production of many fertilizers, used to produce ammonia from hydrogen and nitrogen.
Proposed by Fritz Haber.
