1.    Write the balanced equation 
(reaction). 
2.    Convert the known 
information (e.g. mass) of the reactant to moles. 
        A.   If need help 
on determining the appropriate mole equation (e.g. mass ,volume, 
#particles) 
                
look at Graphic Organizer. 
        B.  Will modify this 
step when we get to Limiting Reactant problems 
3.    Use the balance equation to set-up the 
right "Molar Ratio" to go from 
        the known substance to the 
unknown substance. 
4.    Convert from 
the moles of the unknown substance to the unknown information 
        (e.g. are you looking for 
mass, volume, # of particles). 
        A.   Again, if you 
need help on determining the appropriate equation, 
               
look at the Graphical Organizer.
