About Stoichiometry Calculator
The Stoichiometry Calculator converts between moles, mass (grams), and volume (liters at STP) for any substance in a balanced chemical equation. It automatically calculates molar masses from chemical formulas and applies molar ratios to perform conversions, showing each step of the solution so you can follow the reasoning.
Key Concepts in Stoichiometry
⚖ Molar Mass
The mass of one mole of a substance in grams per mole (g/mol). Calculated by summing the atomic masses of all atoms in the formula. For example, H2O = 2(1.008) + 15.999 = 18.015 g/mol.
🔗 Molar Ratio
The ratio of coefficients from a balanced equation. In 2H2 + O2 → 2H2O, the ratio of H2 to O2 is 2:1, meaning 2 moles of hydrogen react with every 1 mole of oxygen.
📐 Molar Volume
At Standard Temperature and Pressure (STP: 0°C, 1 atm), one mole of any ideal gas occupies exactly 22.414 liters. This allows direct conversion between moles and volume for gases.
🔄 The Mole Bridge
Stoichiometry problems always go through moles. Convert the known quantity to moles, apply the molar ratio, then convert to the desired unit. This three-step method works for any conversion.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is stoichiometry?
Stoichiometry is the branch of chemistry that deals with the quantitative relationships between reactants and products in a balanced chemical equation. It uses molar ratios from balanced equations to convert between amounts of different substances.
How do you convert grams to moles?
To convert grams to moles, divide the mass in grams by the molar mass of the substance. The molar mass is the sum of atomic masses of all atoms in the chemical formula, measured in grams per mole (g/mol).
What is a molar ratio?
A molar ratio is the ratio of the coefficients of two substances in a balanced chemical equation. For example, in 2H2 + O2 → 2H2O, the molar ratio of H2 to O2 is 2:1, meaning 2 moles of hydrogen react with 1 mole of oxygen.
What is molar volume at STP?
At Standard Temperature and Pressure (0°C and 1 atm), one mole of any ideal gas occupies 22.414 liters. This is known as the molar volume at STP and allows conversion between moles and volume for gaseous substances.
Why must the chemical equation be balanced?
A balanced equation ensures conservation of mass and atoms. The coefficients in a balanced equation represent the molar ratios needed for stoichiometric calculations. An unbalanced equation would give incorrect ratios and wrong results.
