Lessons 25 and 26

Lesson 25

Lesson 25 basically continued to break down the mole tunnel and mole ratios into 3 steps. The mole tunnel is just the way you set up your equation to solve mole ratio problems. First, convert grams to moles. Next, find the molar ratio, and last convert grams into moles.

Lesson 26

Lesson 26 talked about limiting reactants. When comparing reactants to find the limiting reactant, compare moles not grams. If you have two products it doesn't matter which one you us, just turn all reactants into the same products. Then we talked about percent yield. The equation for percent yield is the actual amount, divided by the theoretical amount and multiplied by 100. The actual number is the number that you would get in a a perfect scenario. The theoretical number account for what you would probably be true to things like water droplets in the beaker and gas escaping. The percent yield can be in moles or grams.
