Question

Define the following terms:
(a) Empirical Formula (b) Stoichiometry (c) Limiting reagent​

Answer 1

Answer:

a)In chemistry, the empirical formula of a chemical compound is the simplest positive integer ratio of atoms present in a compound. A simple example of this concept is that the empirical formula of sulfur monoxide, or SO, would simply be SO, as is the empirical formula of disulfur dioxide, S₂O₂

b)Stoichiometry is a section of chemistry that involves using relationships between reactants and/or products in a chemical reaction to determine desired quantitative data. In Greek, stoikhein means element and metron means measure, so stoichiometry literally translated means the measure of elements.

c)The limiting reagent in a chemical reaction is the substance that is totally consumed when the chemical reaction is completed. The amount of product formed is limited by this reagent, since the reaction cannot continue without it.

Answer 2

a) a formula giving the proportions of the elements present in a compound but not the actual numbers for arrangement of atoms.

b) Stoichiometry is the calculation of reactants and products in chemical reactions.

c) limiting reactant, the reactant in a chemical reaction that limits the amount of product that can be formed the reaction will stop. When all the limiting reactant is consumed.
