| Important rules for resolving a reaction calculation: | |
| 1 | Use balanced reaction equation and add the phases. |
| 2 | Underline the data, the given data and those asked for.
The other substances (without any data) are not needed in the calculation. Sometimes the data are directly given, sometimes indirectly. The calculation is continues with only the underlined substances. |
| 3 | write down the mol proportion |
| 4 | Where needed, convert the mol into the right units
(to be found in the data and in the required answer) |
| 5 | Introduce a conversion factor to arrive at the real amounts,
given in the data. That's how you finish the calculation. |
