• Using the methods of stoichiometry, we can measure the amounts of substances involved in chemical reactions and relate them to one another.
Stoichiometry
Stoichiometry: Basic ConceptsStoichiometry: Basic ConceptsStoichiometry: Basic ConceptsStoichiometry: Basic Concepts
• For example, a sample’s mass or volume can be converted to a count of the number of its particles, such as atoms, ions, or molecules.
Topic 16Topic 16
• Atoms are so tiny that an ordinary-sized sample of a substance contains so many of these submicroscopic particles that counting them by grouping them in thousands would be unmanageable.
Stoichiometry
Stoichiometry: Basic ConceptsStoichiometry: Basic ConceptsStoichiometry: Basic ConceptsStoichiometry: Basic Concepts
• Even grouping them by millions would not help.
Topic 16Topic 16
• The group or unit of measure used to count numbers of atoms, molecules, or formula units of substances is the mole (abbreviated mol).

• The number of things in one mole is 6.02 x 1023. This big number has a short name: the Avogadro constant.
Topic 16Topic 16
• The most precise value of the Avogadro constant is 6.0221367 x 1023. For most purposes, rounding to 6.02 x 1023 is sufficient.
