Using a balanced chemical equation to convert from mole to molecules in stoichiometry

posted on

How to convert from mole to number of molecules Since 1 mole of any substance contains 6.02 x 1023 particles (Avogadro’s number), we can interpret the following equation: H2 + I2 …

How to use particle models to determine the amount of excess reactant left over after the limiting reactant is completely used up in a reaction

posted on

In chemical reactions, reactants are converted into products. In other words, atoms of reactants in the starting mixture regroup in new ways to form new chemicals called products in the product …
