Stoichiometry Devon Bateman
2
Essential Question Why is a foot…a foot? –King Henry I had a foot 12 inches long.
3
Unit Questions What are measurements? What do we measure? How do we measure? Why do we measure? How do chemists measure molecules?
4
Overview Measurement –List examples of measurement –Define purpose of measurement –Explain chemist’s use of the mole Stoichiometry –Relate stoichiometry to a recipe –Demonstrate mole ratios in balanced equations
5
WHAT DO WE MEASURE AND HOW?
6
Measurements allow us compare or analyze data. Therefore, measurements must be reasonable.
7
How do chemists count molecules? Can chemists count by measuring? Chemists count using the mole.
8
Mole: the unit used to measure the amount of a substance 1 mole = 6.02x10 23 particles
9
Stoichiometry- the study of mole and mass relationships in a chemical reactionStoichiometry- http://www.lsua.us/chem1001/stoichiometry/stoichiometry.html
10
The mass of the reactants must equal the mass of the products. H 2 + Cl 2 2 HCl
11
A balanced chemical equation is very similar to a recipe.
13
Coefficients represent the mole ratio between substances. 6 O 2 + C 6 H 12 O 6 6 CO 2 + 6 H 2 O
14
Example 4 Fe + 3 O 2 2 Fe 2 O 3 It takes 4 moles iron & 3 moles oxygen to produce 2 moles iron (III) oxide.
15
Conclusion The mole allows chemists to analyze chemical reactions. Balanced equations can be treated like recipes. Amount of ingredients determines the amount of product
