Limiting Reactant

The reactant that is completely consumed during a reaction, determining the extent of the reaction.

2
New cards

Excess Reactant

A reactant that remains after the reaction has completed.

3
New cards

Theoretical Yield

The amount of product predicted by stoichiometry.

4
New cards

Actual Yield

The amount of product actually formed in a reaction.

5
New cards

% Yield

A measure of the efficiency of a reaction calculated as (Actual yield / Theoretical yield) x 100.

6
New cards

Reaction Stoichiometry

The calculation of reactants and products in chemical reactions, based on balanced equations.

7
New cards

Mole Ratio

The ratio of moles of one substance to the moles of another substance in a balanced chemical reaction.

8
New cards

Balanced Equation

An equation in which the number of atoms for each element is the same on both sides.

9
New cards

Product Formation

The amount of product produced in a chemical reaction based on the limiting reactant.

10
New cards

Gravimetric Analysis

A method to determine the amount of a substance by mass in a chemical reaction.
