In this unit, we have learned how to use a balanced chemical equation and some given information to predict an amount of reactant or product. By picking out the given and end goal, you can compare then moles of each substance using coefficients from the balanced equation to get a theoretical answer. You can also use stoichiometry to find limiting reagents by looking at which reactant produces the least amount of product in a reaction.
