Limiting Reactant (LR)

The reactant that is completely consumed in a reaction, determining the maximum amount of product formed.

2
New cards

Excess Reactant

The reactant that remains after the limiting reactant is fully consumed.

3
New cards

Theoretical Yield

The maximum amount of product that can be produced from given amounts of reactants.

4
New cards

Actual Yield

The amount of product actually produced in a reaction, which can be less than the theoretical yield.

5
New cards

Percent Yield

Calculated as (Actual Yield / Theoretical Yield) x 100, representing the efficiency of a reaction.

6
New cards

Stoichiometry

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

7
New cards

Combustion Reaction

A chemical reaction that typically involves oxygen and produces energy, carbon dioxide, and water.

8
New cards

Molar Mass

The mass of one mole of a substance, usually measured in
