Concept Introduction:
The coefficients that are present in a balanced chemical equation is like subscripts in the chemical formula. These coefficients can be interpreted in two levels. One is a microscopic level and another is macroscopic level.
Microscopic level:
The coefficients that are present in a balanced chemical equation gives numerical relationship between the formula units consumed or produced when a chemical reaction takes place.
Macroscopic level:
In a balanced chemical equation, the coefficients give information about the fixed molar ratios among the substance that is consumed or produced when a chemical reaction takes place.

Calculate the central, upper, and lower control limits for the c-chart and draw the chart precisely on the graph sheet provided (based on 3-sigma limits). Your chart should include a line for each of the control limits (UCL, CL, and LCL) and the points for each observation. Number the x-axis 1 through 25 and evenly space the numbering for the y-axis. Connect the points by drawing a line as well. Label each line drawn.
