Introduction to Stoichiometry with S’Mores! Stoichiometry deals with mole, mass and volume relationships in chemical reactions
� What ingredients do we need to make a S’more? � What do we use to represent the elements?
� Let’s write a balanced equation…
How’d we do? ? The “Balanced” Equation 2 graham crackers + 1 marshmallow + 1 chocolate piece 1 s’more 2 Gc + 1 M + 1 C 1 Gc 2 MC
� What is our ratio? Terminology � Limiting reactant – what you run out of ◦ Limits how much product you can make
