This document provides notes on Chapter 4 of an ASP Chemistry course. It covers topics including:
1. Reaction stoichiometry and the role of coefficients in balancing chemical equations. Examples are provided for photosynthesis and other reactions.
2. Limiting reagents, theoretical yield, and percent yield. The difference between actual and theoretical yield is explained.
3. Several examples are worked through to demonstrate stoichiometric calculations involving moles, masses, and limiting reagents.
4. Additional practice problems are provided covering stoichiometry, limiting reagents, theoretical yield, and percent yield.
5. An introduction to solution concentration and solution stoichiometry is given at the end. Definitions of solute,
