Definition of Stoichiometry
Stoichiometry means representing the exact
mass or moles of the reactants which are
required to react with each other without any
wastage and also finding out the exact mass or
moles of the product which will be formed.
Ex Formula Weight
Percent Composition
One can find the percentage of the mass of
a compound that comes from each of the
elements in the compound by using this
equation:
(number of atoms)(atomic weight)
% element =
x 100
(FW of the compound)
Percent Composition
So the percentage of carbon and hydrogen
in ethane (C2H6, molecular mass = 30.0)
is:
(2)(12.0 amu)
%C =
(30.0 amu)
(6)(1.01 amu)
%H =
(30.0 amu)
24.0 amu
x 100
= 80.0%
x 100
= 20.0%
30.0 amu
6.06 amu
30.0 amu

The compound para-aminobenzoic acid (you may have seen it listed as
PABA on your bottle of sunscreen) is composed of carbon (61.31%),
hydrogen (5.14%), nitrogen (10.21%), and oxygen (23.33%). Find the
empirical formula of PABA.

Limiting Reactants
You can make cookies until you run out of one of the ingredients
Once you run out of sugar, you will stop making cookies
In this example the sugar would be the limiting reactant,
because it will limit the amount of cookies you can make
Limiting Reactants
In the example below, the O2 would be the
excess reagent
Problem solving
Aim: Be able to calculate:
A. Which reactant (if any) is limiting?
B. What mass or volume of product can be formed?
A. Which reactant is
limiting?
1 Calculate moles of each reactant:
moles = mass/mr
Moles NH3 = 750 / 17.03 = 44 moles
