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".

**Theoretical Yield: Definition and Calculation**

The theoretical yield of a reaction is defined as the amount of product that would be obtained if the limiting reactant is completely converted to product. It is an important concept in stoichiometry and helps in understanding the efficiency of chemical reactions.

**Example Reaction**

Consider the following chemical reaction:

\[ 2 \text{Fe}(s) + \text{O}_2(g) \rightarrow 2 \text{FeO}(s) \]

In this reaction, iron (Fe) reacts with oxygen (O₂) to produce iron(II) oxide (FeO).

**Problem Statement**

If 9.250 g of iron (Fe) is mixed with 13.39 g of oxygen (O₂), calculate the theoretical yield (in grams) of iron(II) oxide (FeO) produced by the reaction.
