Question

Please answer all 3 parts: 1. Please record a simple (3-4 item) recipe for any food or drink. 2. Then, triple the recipe and record that. 3. Give a ratio for two of the ingredients in each recipe.

Example: 4 pieces of bread + 2 Tbsp peanut butter + 2 tsp jelly 2 peanut butter and jelly sandwiches. Ratio of bread slices to teaspoons jelly in 2 sandwiches: 4/2 Tripled: 12 pieces bread + 6 Tbsp peanut butter + 6 tsp jelly 6 peanut butter/ jelly sandwiches. Ratio of bread slices to teaspoons jelly in 6 sandwiches: 12/6     B.) Why do you think that a balanced chemical equation is necessary before proceeding with the other stoichiometry steps?

B.) Why do you think that a balanced chemical equation is necessary before processing with the other stiochiometry steps?

Explanation / Answer

Take a similar recipe of a sandwich using butter and cheese-spread

We have:

4 pieces of bread

2 tablespoons of butter.

2 tablespoons of cheese-spread.

So, we have one sandwich of butter and cheese-spread each.

Ratio of bread slices to butter/ cheese-spread= 4/2

Next step: Tripled ingredients

We have:

12 pieces of bread

6 tablespoons of butter.

6 tablespoons of cheese-spread.

Ratio of bread slices to butter/ cheese-spread= 12/6

B) A balanced chemical equation is necessary before processing with the other stiochiometry steps because a balanced equation will show how many molecules of one compound will react with how many molecules of another. Precisely, it can be stated as the number of moles of one compound that will react with a given number of moles of another.

Eg. Hydrogen combining with oxygen to produce water.

H2+ O2 = H2O

Balanced equation:
2H2 + O2 = 2H2O .
