Stoichiometry involves the quantitative relationships between reactants and products in chemical reactions. The chapter covers the concept of the mole, molar mass, and how to perform stoichiometric calculations. It also introduces empirical and molecular formulas, concentration measurements, and methods such as titration and spectrophotometry for quantitative analysis in solutions.

Term: Stoichiometry
Definition: The part of chemistry that deals with the quantitative relationships between reactants and products in chemical reactions.
Term: Mole
Definition: A fundamental unit in chemistry representing 6.02 x 10^23 particles of a substance, used for counting atoms and molecules.
Term: Empirical Formula
Definition: The simplest whole-number ratio of atoms of each element in a compound, derived from experimental data.
Term: Molarity
Definition: A unit of concentration defined as moles of solute per cubic decimeter of solution, commonly used for liquid solutions.
Term: Titration
