Understanding Stoichiometry: Reactants, Products, and Chemical Relationships
This lecture explores stoichiometry, focusing on the quantitative relationships between reactants and products in chemical reactions. It utilizes balanced equations to define stoichiometric ratios, exemplified by the equation 2Al(s) + 3Br2(l) → Al2Br6(s). The lecture discusses the formation of ions, the distinction between cations and anions, the naming of ionic compounds, and the relevant rules for naming molecular compounds. Additionally, it covers how to calculate molecular weights and convert between mass and moles, using ethanol as a practical example.

STOICHIOMETRY • Stoichiometry is the study of the quantitative relationships between the amounts of reactants and products in chemical reactions. • We use BALANCED equations to understand stoichiometric relationships of the elements and compounds within a chemical reaction.
The Balanced Equation 2Al(s) + 3Br2(l) Al2Br6(s) 2mol of Al : 3mol of Br2 : 1mol of Al2Br6 Therefore the ratio of Al to Br2 to Al2Br6 is 2:3:1 for the chemical reaction to occur.
A Closer Look at the Equation 2Al(s) + 3Br2(l) Al2Br6(s) • The chemicals on the left are the reactants and the right are the products. • The coefficient in front of the chemical denotes the stoichiometric relationship.
Numerical Subscripts 2Al(s) + 3Br2(l) Al2Br6(s) • The numerical subscriptrepresents the number of atoms present in the molecule • ex. Br2 means that an atom of Br is bonded to another atom of Br • Therefore: Br-Br = Br2
Denoting the Phase of Matter 2Al(s) + 3Br2(l) Al2Br6(s) The subscript letters in parenthesis denote the phase of matter that the chemical is in.
Formulas and Models of Ethanol • Molecular Formulas C2H6O • Condensed Formulas C2H5OH H H • Structural Formulas H-C-C-O-H H H • Molecular Models (classroom models)
Molecular Models • Cache program - models - organic models - ethanol • CD-ROM screen 3.4 • Model of ice
Ions and Ionic Compounds • Ions are atoms or groups of atoms that have lost or gained electrons resulting in an overall positive or negative charges. • Ionic compounds are compounds formed by the combination of (+) and (-) ions. (+) ions are called cations (-) ions are called anions
Formation of Ions Formation of a cation by a loss of electrons Li atom Li+ + 1 e- released (3p and 3e-) (3p and 2e-) Formation of an anion by gaining electrons F atom + 1 e- added F (9p and 9e-) (9p and 10e-)
Ions and the Periodic Table Metals of group 1A, 2A & 3A form +1, +2, and +3 ions; and non-metals of group 5A, 6A, and 7A form -3, -2, and -1 respectively.

0 Oxoanions A polyatomic anion containing oxygen is called an oxoanion and is named as follows: • Greater # of O atoms has the suffix -ate. • Lesser # of O atoms has the suffix -ite. Ex. NO3- is called nitrate ion NO2- is called nitrite ion
0 Naming Oxoanions More than 2 ions in an oxoanion grouping are named as follows: • Largest # of O atoms has a prefix of per- and a suffix of -ate • Next larger # of O atoms has a suffix -ate • Smaller # of O atoms has a suffix -ite • Smallest # of O atoms has a prefix of hypo- and a suffix of -ite
0 Naming Oxoanions Ex. ClO4- is called perchlorate ClO3- is called chlorate ClO2- is called chlorite ClO- is called hypochlorite
0 Ionic Compounds Ca+2 + 2Cl- CaCl2 Each ion comes together based on charge to form an overall neutral ionic compound. 3Ca+2 + 2PO4-3 Ca3(PO4)2 The cation and the polyatomic ion come together based on charge to form an overall neutral ionic compound.
0 Naming Ionic Compounds • Naming Positive Ions – Cations • Cations are named first in the compound and as follows: • Monatomic cations are mostly metals and are named directly as they are on the periodic table. • Transition metals are named according to their ionic charge • Polyatomic cation, NH4+ is named ammonium directly
0 Naming Ionic Compounds • Naming Negative Ions – Anions • Anions are named lastly and have specific naming rules as follows: • Monatomic ions are named with an –ide after its atomic name • Polyatomic ions are named as memorized dropping the word ion.
0 Naming Molecular Compounds • 1 mono • 2 di • 3 tri • 4 tetra • 5 penta • 6 hexa • 7 hepta • 8 octa
Formula & Molecular Weights • Review of spectra lab - MW calculations • CD-ROM Screen 3.14 • Definition: The total mass of the formula unit or molecule with consideration to the mass of each component element that makes up the overall unit.
Calculating Formula & MW • Remember we said that: 1 mole C = 12.011g C = 6.02x1023 atoms C • If we add up the number atoms present of each element in a molecule or formula unit and multiply each by its atomic weight on the periodic table, • Then the resultant sum of each element added together will give you the formula or molecular weight.
Example of MW Calculation • Determine the MW of H20 • 1 O @ 15.999g/mole • 2 H @ 1.008g/mole • Therefore 2 x 1.008 = 2.016g/mole • and 1 x 15.999 = 15.999g/mole Total molar mass = 18.015g/mole Determine the MW of ethanol: C2H5OH
Converting Mass to Moles • Question: How many moles of H2O are in 42.0g of water? • Answer: First you determine the MW of water as we did on the previous slide, then you convert 42.0g H2O x 1 mole H2O = 18.016g H2O
Percent Composition • Calculate the percent composition of NH3 • First determine the atomic weights of each N and H from the periodic table • Then calculate the MW of the ammonia molecule • Take the mass of each element and divide by the MW and multiply 100% • CD-ROM Screens 3.14 and 3.16
Hydrated Compounds • Definition: Ionic compound that has water molecules incorporated within its crystal structure • Ex. CuCl2•2H2O • Where we name this compound copper(II) chloride dihydrate • When calculating MW, we calculate the two waters into the overall mass of the compound
