edumaps

Topics

    • Chemical Reactions
    • Limiting Reactants

Learning Goals

    • Recognize that atoms are conserved during a chemical reaction.
    • Use concrete everyday experiences (such as making sandwiches) to describe the what a limiting reactant means in chemical reactions.
    • Identify the limiting reactant in a chemical reaction.
    • Predict the products and leftovers after reaction, based on the quantities of reactants and ratios of molecules in the balanced chemical equation.
    • Predict the initial amounts of reactants given the amount of products and leftovers using the concept of limiting reactant.
    • Translate from symbolic (chemical formula) to molecular (pictorial) representations of matter.
