Stoichiometry:
The
study of relationship between the amounts of reactants and products as
indicated by the balanced chemical equation is called stoichiometry.
Explanation:
Stoichiometry is
used to calculate the amount of the product formed or that of the reactant
required in a reaction.
Stoichiometric
calculations are performed by the following assumptions in hand:
i)
Reactants are completely converted into products.
ii)
No side-reaction occurs.
iii)
Stoichiometry calculations are based on the two laws of chemical
combinations:
(a) Law of Conservation of Mass
(b) Law of Definite Proportions
