Title
 Road map of stoichiometric conversions with molar concentrations
Caption
 Stoichiometric conversions involving molar concentrations. The diagram shows the sequence of conversions needed for stoichiometric calculations when the one or both of the reacting chemicals is dissolved in water. Conversion factors are shown alongisde the arrows.

Title
 Limiting reactant
Caption
 When you make sandwiches from bread, lunchmeat, and cheese, whichever one you run out of limits the number of sandwiches you can make - like the "limiting reactant" which controls the amount of products that can be formed during a chemical reaction. In this figure, bread is the "limiting reactant."
Keywords

Title
 Limiting reactant in the formation of ammonia
Caption
 When ammonia is formed from a mixture of 1 N2 and 6 H2 molecules, all of the nitrogen is consumed when two molecules of ammonia are produced. The proportions are the same if we use moles. The amount of nitrogen limits the amount of ammonia that can be formed. Nitrogen is the limiting reactant. Hydrogen is present in excess.
Keywords
 limiting reactant, nitrogen, hydrogen, ammonia, excess

Title
 Energy level diagram for an exothermic reaction
Caption
 The exothermic reaction of hydrogen gas with oxygen gas. The combustion of hydrogen is an exothermic reaction: )H=-283 kJ. The energy possessed by the product, water, is less than the energy of the reactants, so )H is negative.
Keywords
 enthalpy, exothermic, energy level, combustion, oxygen gas, hydrogen gas, heat change

Title
 Energy level diagram for endothermic reaction
Caption
 The decomposition of water is an endothermic reaction: )H=+283 kJ. The energy possessed by the products is greater than the energy of the reactants, so )H is positive. When a direct current is used to supply the energy, the process is called electrolysis.
