STOICHIOMETRY
STOICHIOMETRY
• Stoichiometry• the mole-mass relationship between reactants
and products.
• Molecular Mass • measured in atomic mass units (a.m.u.)
• Review: Calculate the molecular mass of chloroethane C2H5Cl.• 64.5 a.m.u.
STOICHIOMETRY
• Mole • A unit that refers to the number of molecules or
ions that take part in a chemical reaction.• Molar Mass• One mole is equal to the molecular mass in
grams.• Ex: C2H5Cl = 64.5 a.m.u. = 1 mole = 64.5 grams• Potassium (K) has molecular mass 39.1 a.m.u.• What is 1 mole of potassium in grams?• 39.1 grams
STOICHIOMETRY
• Molecular Mass (a.m.u.) = Molar Mass (g) = 1 mole
• Activity 1• Given molecule A in grams show the equation
that would convert grams of A to moles of A.
• Given the moles of molecule B show the equation that would convert moles of B to grams of B.
STOICHIOMETRY
• Problem 1• Convert 15.0 grams of C2H4 to moles of C2H4.• 0.536 moles
• Convert 0.536 moles of HCl to grams of HCl.• 19.6 grams
STOICHIOMETRY
• Molecular Mass (a.m.u.) = Molar Mass (g) = 1 mole
• Activity 2 • Given the reaction 2A + 3B A2B + B2
show the equation that would convert the grams of A into the grams of B that are required to fulfill the reaction.
• Grams to moles to moles to grams!
• Problem 2 • Sodium hypochlorite (NaOCl) is best known as
household bleach. It is prepared by reacting sodium hydroxide (NaOH) with chlorine Cl2:
2NaOH + Cl2 NaOCl + NaCl + H2O
• How many grams of NaOH are needed to react with 25.0 g of Cl2?
• 28.2 g NaOH
STOICHIOMETRY
• Problem 3• Aspirin is prepared by a reaction of salicylic acid
(C7H6O3) with acetic anhydride (C4H6O3) according to the following equation: C7H6O3 + C4H6O3 C9H8O4 + CH3COOH
Salicylic acid Acetic anhydride Aspirin
138.1 g 102.1 g 180.2 g• How many grams of acetic anhydride are needed to
react with 4.50 g of salicylic acid?• 3.33 g C7H6O3
• How many grams of aspirin will result?• 5.87 g C9H8O4

with carbon:
Fe2O3 + C Fe + CO2
How many grams of carbon are needed to react with 525 g of hematite?
59.2 g C
