OMG ANOTHER FUN AND EXCITING CLASS!!!!

Today we learned about the proness of  MOLE + WORD EQUTIONS OMG OMG OMG OMG. How hax is it? I have no idea but we all know because it is chemistry it have to be FUN! Right? Yep that’s my into for today and maybe next time when I am more creative I’ll write more or other stuff but today isn’t my creative day. OKAY ON TOPIC So what did we learn today? We learned about this thing called st-----metry yea something like that... After looking through an immense amount of books many scholars finally decided on Stoichiometry. So what does Stoichiometry mean??? Honestly I have no idea, but according to Wikipedia it is about the quantitative analysis of chemicals reactions and measuring the amount of elements and compounds involved in a reaction. So basically it means measuring chemicals in numbers and the number of elements and compound in an reaction. What does Stoichiomety help us find out? It find how many molecules of whatever element that is in a reaction that the reaction started with. So is this thing useful? Not really but its life so we have to learn it. Going back  a bit Stoichiometry can be separated into 2 Greek words stoichio which menas elements and metry is measurement.
Let’s start with an example
I have 90000 Cl and 1 Na what will I get?
9000Cl+1Na à NaCl + 8999Cl
Even though I have over 9 thousand of Cl I can only produce 1 NaCl because Na is the limiting factor.
First Q
C3H8+5O2à 4H2O +3CO2 how many grams of H2O will be produced if I burned 215G of C3H8?
First make everything into moles
215g C3H8 * mol C3H8/44GC3H8 = 4.89 mol C3H8
4.89 molC3H8 * 4mol H2O/1mol C3H8 = 19.5mol H2O
19.5mol H2O* 18gH2O/1mol H2O = 352g H2O
There done
More questions
the number of moles of carbon dioxide formed when 40.0 mol of oxygen is consumed in the burning of propane.
C3H8 + 5O2 à 3CO2 + 4H2O
Molar Ratio 3 CO2 / 5 O2

40.0 mol O2 x 3 mol CO2 = 24.0 mol CO2
                          5 mol O2

A piece of iron (10moles) was dissolved in HCl. The reaction formed H2 and FeCl2 amount of FeCl2 formed and amound of HCl used.
  Fe + 2HCl = FeCl2+H2
10 mol Fe * 1mol FeCl2/1mol Fe  = 10mol FeCl2
HCl = 2(Fe) --> 20 moles of HCl was used.



Super typical chem teacher teaching on youtube.
