Stoichiometry
 3

Stoichiometry is the part of

chemistry that studies amounts of
substances that are involved in
reactions.
  4

 You might be looking at the

amounts of substances before
 the
Youreaction.
might be looking at the
amount of material that is
produced by the reaction.
 Stoichiometry is all about the
numbers.
