| molecular formula | exact number and types of atoms |
| coefficient | number that tells you how many of each molecule participates in the balanced reaction |
| synthesis | reaction where two compounds combine to make one compound |
| actual yield | amount obtained in the lab by actual experiment |
| theoretical yield | calculated amount produced if everything reacts perfectly |
| percent yield | ratio of the amount of prduct actually obtained by experiment as compared to amount of product calculated |
| mole ratio | ratio comarison between substances in a balanced equation |
| stoichiometry | the study of amounts of substances involved in a chemical equation |
| limiting reactant | reactan present in the least amount. The reactant that runs out |
| single displacement | where two compounds swap a single element ore polyatomic ion |
| double displacement | where two compounds swap two elements or polyatomic ions |
| excess reactant | the reactant present in the most amount. The reactant that is left over |
