Description

Stoichiometry, every chemistry student’s nightmare! But we’ve got you! The episode reviews the mole concept and describes the meaning of coefficients in a balanced chemical equation (1:03). Using sandwiches as an analogy, it shows how to relate the amount of reactants to products (2:42) and uses the same concept for the synthesis of ammonia (5:08). With a second reactant, we recap the concept of limiting and excess reactants for the sandwich (5:50) as well as the production of ammonia (6:24). The episode closes with a recap of how to use molar mass to convert moles to grams (6:58).

Question:(8:26) Which day is the chemist’s favorite holiday - mole day?
