Steps to solve mole-to-mole, mole-tomass, and mass-to-mass
stoichiometric problems
1.Complete Step 1 by writing the
balanced chemical equation for the
reaction.
2.To determine where to start your
calculations, note the unit of the
given substance.
Using Stoichiometry (cont.)
Section 11-2
If mass (in grams) of the given
substance is the starting unit, begin
your calculations with Step 2.
If amount (in moles) of the given
substance is the starting unit, skip
Step 2 and begin your calculations
with Step 3.

3. The end point of the calculation
depends on the desired unit of the
unknown substance.
If the answer must be in moles, stop
after completing Step 3.
If the answer must be in grams, stop
after completing Step 4.
