What is it?
How do you solve?
1.Balance the equation.
2.Convert units of a given substance to moles.
3.Using the mole ratio,calculate the moles of substance yielded by the reaction.
4.Convert the moles of wanted substances to desired units.
What is it used for?
Things it predicts:
1.Predict the mass of a product of a chemical reaction if given the starting masses of reactants.
2.predicts the volume of the gas which will be produced by a reaction if given the starting amounts of reactions?
3.Determine the optimal ratio of reactants for a chemical reaction so that all reactants are fully used
How is it used in the real world?
How to know when to use it?
Why is it important?
Lets try it!
The equation is already balanced so the next thing you would have to do is to convert the given substance into moles.The molar mass of CaO+CO2 is 100.086mol.The next thing you would have to find the mole ratio of your specific ration and calculate the substances yielded by the reaction.When you get that amount of moles you want then you convert it into the desired units.
