Stoichiometry calculator
Stoichiometry Calculator calculates the amounts of reactants and products in a balanced chemical reaction based on a given quantity of a substance.
Enter Parameters
e.g., 2H2 + O2 -> 2H2O
e.g., H2, O2, or H2O
e.g., 2.5
How to Use Stoichiometry Calculator:
- Enter a balanced chemical equation (e.g., 2H2 + O2 -> 2H2O).
- Specify a substance from the equation (e.g., H2, O2, H2O).
- Enter the quantity of the substance in moles (e.g., 2.5).
- Click “Calculate Stoichiometry” to compute the moles of other substances.
- Use “Copy Results” to copy the results to the clipboard (requires HTTPS).
Important Notes:
- Equation must be balanced and use -> to separate reactants and products.
- Substance must match a chemical in the equation exactly.
- Quantity must be a positive number (0.001 to 1000 moles).
- Stoichiometric ratios are based on the coefficients in the equation.
- Clipboard access requires a secure context (HTTPS). If copying fails, copy manually.
Stoichiometry Examples:
-
Example 1:
Equation: 2H2 + O2 -> 2H2O
Substance: H2, Quantity: 4 moles
Expected: O2: 2 moles, H2O: 4 moles -
Example 2:
Equation: CH4 + 2O2 -> CO2 + 2H2O
Substance: CH4, Quantity: 1 mole
Expected: O2: 2 moles, CO2: 1 mole, H2O: 2 moles -
Example 3:
Equation: N2 + 3H2 -> 2NH3
Substance: N2, Quantity: 2 moles
Expected: H2: 6 moles, NH3: 4 moles
