Question

a) Aluminum metal reacts with iron(III) oxide to form aluminum oxide and iron metal. What is the stoichiometric coefficient of aluminum when the chemical equation is balanced using the lowest, whole-number stoichiometric coefficients? Coefficient of Al :

b) Calcium chloride reacts with sodium phosphate to form calcium phosphate and sodium chloride. What is the lowest integer coefficient of sodium chloride when the reaction is balanced with the lowest integer ratio? Coefficient of NaCl:

Definition Definition Number that is expressed before molecules, ions, and atoms such that it balances out the number of components present on either section of the equation in a chemical reaction. Stoichiometric coefficients can be a fraction or a whole number and are useful in determining the mole ratio among the reactants and products. In any equalized chemical equation, the number of components on either side of the equation will be the same.
