Document Summary

The numerical relationship between chemical quantities in a balanced equation is called reaction stoichiometry. We can predict the amounts of products that form in a chemical reaction based on the amounts of reactants. We can predict how much of the reactants are necessary to form a given amount of product. We can predict how much of one reactant is required to react completely with another reactant. In a balanced chemical equation, we have a recipe for how reactants combine to form products. Describes the maximum amount of product that you expect a chemical reaction could create. The amount of product actually produced by a chemical reaction. Percent yield (actual yield / theoretical yield) x 100% The titrant and analyte undergo a chemical reaction of known stoichiometry. Measuring the volume of the titrant solution required for complete reaction with the analyte (the equivalence point of the titration) allows calculation of the analyte concentration.
