Percent Composition
Find the weight of each element and divide that by the total weight of the compound
Empirical Formula
A. If given percents - make the mythical 100 gram sample and then turn it into moles. Divide the lowest number to get a ratio, if the ratio is a whole number (or close by .1 or .9) then you can round. If it is not a whole number you can multiply them ALL by 2,3,4,5,etc... to get them to whole numbers. B. Given a compound weight - find the weight of the empirical formula and divide the given weight by the weight of the empirical formula. However many times the empirical weight goes into the compound weight must multiply the empirical formula by that number.
Net Ionic Equations
Balance the equation
Decide if the compounds are soluble or not
Break apart the soluble ones with charges
Cross out ions same on both sides of equation
Remaining ions (with charges)/compounds = net ionic equation
Stoichiometry
Write/balance the equation
Convert what was given into moles
Converts moles of what is given to moles of what is asked for (this means the ratio from the balanced equation)
Convert moles of what is wanted to grams
If given amounts of two reactants then must get moles of both then compare the amounts to the ratio from the equation, if the number is too big that means the one on the bottom is the limiting reagent and if the number is too big the one on the top is the limiting reagent. Then use the mole of the limiting reagent to move forward starting at number 3 above.

Converting moles to grams
moles x molar mass/1 mol
Start with moles (2.792 mole H2O), multiply by grams (18 grams in H2O) and divide by 1 mole (6.02) = 50.0 gr H20
Converting grams to moles
grams x 1 mol/ molar mass of element
116 gr O2, multiply by 1 mole (6.02) and divide by molar mass (32 gr total in O2)
