Stoichiometry |
Calculations based upon the mole ratios (or the energy of reaction) in balanced equations |
|
Limiting reactant |
The reactant which completely reacts and therefore determines the yield of product |
|
Reactant in excess |
Some of this reactant is left over unreacted |
|
Theoretical yield |
The product yield predicted from stoichiometry, based upon the number moles of limiting reactant |
|
Actual yield |
Experimental yield, almost always less than theoretical yield |
|
Heat of reaction |
The heat term in a balanced chemical equation |
|
Decant |
To pour off solution/liquid, leaving solid behind |
|
Percent yield |
The ratio of actual to theoretical yield, expressed as a percentage |
