Hi!
It can be explained with.....
Lets take burning hydrogen in oxygen as an example.
H2 + O2 = H2O
This equation shows in symbols the reaction, but is not balanced….meaning the number of atoms on both sides of the equation don’t add up.
This is corrected by placing numbers in front of the formula to adjust the actual numbers of molecules that are involved in a reaction.
2H2 + O2 = 2H2O These numbers are the stoichiometric coefficients.
:D

Hello.....
The number which is used to balancing a equation is called stoichiometric coefficient.....
eg....H2+O2---------->H2O
Balanced eq...... 2H2 +O2---------->2H2O.......
Here , 2 is the stoichiometric coefficient.
Hope this will help u.....
