Abstract
Stoichiometry deals quantitatively with the conversion of substances in the course of a chemical reaction. In this short chapter, we make ourselves familiar with the definition of some important quantities concerning chemical reactions. We use them throughout this book, as stoichiometric considerations are applied in virtually all problems dealing with chemical reactions such as thermochemistry (Chap. 4) or chemical kinetics (Chap. 6). The problems presented in this chapter deal with elementary applications of stoichiometry.
