Chemical Equation Notes

The document discusses chemical equations and stoichiometric calculations. It provides examples of balanced chemical equations involving states of matter and reaction identification. Steps for stoichiometric calculations are outlined, including writing the balanced chemical equation, determining moles of reactants, relating amounts via the equation, and calculating products. An example calculation is shown for the reaction of copper(II) oxide with aluminum to determine the mass of aluminum needed to completely react with 12g of copper(II) oxide. Exercises are provided to calculate moles of potassium needed to react with bromine and atoms of copper produced from a reaction.
