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".

[Tutorial: Empirical formula) This question will walk you through the process of calculating the empirical formula of a 100.0 g sample of an unknown compound from its elemental percent compositions. This problem will be solved via the following sequence of conversions: mass % mass → moles mole ratio → empirical formula. a) Step 1a: When percentages are given, assume that the total mass is 100 grams to determine the mass of each element in grams. (mass % = mass). Then, using the molar masses of each element, convert grams to moles (mass → moles). The unknown compound is 66.6% N by mass. What quantity in moles of nitrogen does a 100.0 gram sample of the unknown compound contain? b) The unknown compound is 28.6% C by mass. What quantity in moles of carbon does a 100.0 gram sample of the unknown compound contain? c) The unknown compound is 4.8% H by mass.
