In this chapter, you will be introduced to the quantitative relationships between reactants and products in chemical reactions. You will apply the principles of stoichiometry to balanced chemical equations to predict the expected yield of reactions. The concept of limiting reactants is introduced, and you will practice calculating the percent yield of reactions.

In this chapter, you will learn: to define stoichiometry and describe its importance to relate stoichiometry to balanced chemical equations to identify and solve different types of stoichiometry problems to determine the limiting reactant of a chemical reaction to calculate the amount of product formed in a chemical reaction
