Concept explainers

Stoichiometry

Stoichiometry is a chemical division that evaluates the quantitative content of the chemical process with the help of the reacting molecules or products taking part in the reaction. The term “stoicheion” in “Stoichiometry”, is an old Greek term for "element" whereas “metron” means "measure".

A mixture weighing 30.500 g contained 4.518 g NH4Cl, 15.250 g SiO2, with the remainder being NaCl. Find the percent, by weight, of each component. Show your method for making the calculations.
Mole is the term used to express the quantities of substances involved in a chemical reaction. Mole is defined as the amount of a substance that contains Avogadro's number of particles (atoms, ions, molecules, etc.). Avogadro's number is defined as the number of atoms present in 12 g of carbon-12 isotope, with a numerical value equal to 6.022 x 1023. The mole is a unit similar to a dozen; one dozen equivalent to 12 the same way that one mole is equivalent to 6.022 x 1023. You could use this information to write equalities: 12 molecules of H2O = 1 dozen of H2O 6.022 x 1023 molecules of H2O = 1 mol of H2O For example, if I had 18 molecules of water, I would have 18 molecules of water x dozen of water = 1.5 dozen of water 12 molecules of water Molar mass is the mass in grams of 1 mol of substance numerically equal to molecular weight in amu (atomic mass unit). Mass is a measure of quantity, and when you use a balance to weigh a sample, the scale is using a set of standards to determine…
