Unit 7 Stoichiometry Flashcards
Actual yield
The amount of product formed when a reaction is carried out in the laboratory.
Percent Yield
The ratio of the actual yield to the theoretical yield
Theoretical Yield
The calculated amount of product formed during a reaction.
Excess Reagent
Quantity of a reactant that is more than enough to react with a limiting reagent.
Limiting Reagent
The reactant that determines the amount of product that can be formed in a reaction.
Stoichiometry
Calculation of quantities in chemical reactions.
A balanced chemical equation allows one to determine the
mole ratio of any two substances in the reaction
What is the mole ratio of Hydrogen to Ammonia?
3 H₂ + N₂ –> 2 NH₃
3:2
What is the mole ratio of Chlorine to Potassium Chloride?
Cl₂ + 2KBr —> Br₂ + 2 KCl
1:2
