Key concepts students will learn:

  • In chemistry, a balanced chemical equation is like a recipe, showing the ratio of ingredients and products.

  • If a grilled cheese recipe calls for 2 slices of bread and 1 slice of cheese, to make 7 sandwiches, you'll need 14 slices of bread and 7 slices of cheese.

  • When using stoichiometry, always use quantities in moles, and remember that the balanced reaction is your conversion factor.
