R2.1 Stoichiometry: Limiting Reactants & Yield
(How Much?)
Learning Objectives
2.1.1: Stoichiometric Coefficients: Understand how to interpret and apply stoichiometric coefficients in a balanced chemical equation to deduce mole ratios of reactants and products.
2.1.2 & 2.1.3: Limiting Reactants: Identify the limiting and excess reactants by converting quantities to moles, dividing by stoichiometric coefficients, and applying mole ratio comparisons to determine how much product forms and how much reactant remains.
​
2.1.4: Percentage Yield: Calculate percentage yield using mass or volume data and explain its significance in assessing the efficiency of chemical reactions.
​
2.1.5: Atom Economy & Green Chemistry: Explain the principles of green chemistry, calculate atom economy, and evaluate the sustainability of different chemical reactions.
