Stoichiometry

Element Measure

2 H2 + O2 2 H2O

2 molecules of hydrogen react with every molecule of oxygen to produce 2 molecules of water

2 moles of hydrogen react with every mole of oxygen to produce 2 moles of water

2 H2 + O2 2 H2O

Multiply by 24 H2 + 2 O2 4 H2O

4 moles of hydrogen react with every 2 moles of oxygen to produce 4 moles of water

Divide by 2 H2 + 0.5 O2 H2O

1 mole of hydrogen reacts with every 0.5 moles of oxygen to produce 1 mole of water

Stoichiometry Steps

1. Write and balance the equation2. Write the ratio of substances in moles on top of the

equation3. Convert the given information into moles

(if necessary)4. Complete a cross-multiplication to determine the

number of moles of the substance in question5. Convert the answer into the required units (e.g.

grams)6. Write out the answer to the question in correct units.
