Answered 1 year ago
Stoichiometry is an approach to interpret chemical equations quantitatively and studies the reactants and products of chemical reactions. It is based on the law of conservation of mass ensuring that the numbers of atoms (and the masses) of each element remain unchanged in a reaction. Therefore, stoichiometry requires the presence of balanced equations.
