How to Use the Mole Ratio Calculator

Introduction

The Mole Ratio Calculator is designed to help you calculate the theoretical moles of a second compound based on the moles and stoichiometric coefficients of the first compound. Additionally, it provides the mole ratio between the two compounds. Follow this step-by-step guide to use the calculator effectively.

Step-by-Step Instructions

  1. Select the First Compound:

    Use the dropdown menu labeled “First Compound” to select the chemical compound that you want to start with. Options include:

    • H2O (Water)
    • CO2 (Carbon Dioxide)
    • O2 (Oxygen)
    • N2 (Nitrogen)
    • CH4 (Methane)
    • NH3 (Ammonia)

  2. Select the Second Compound:

    Similarly, select the second compound from the dropdown menu labeled “Second Compound.” The options are the same as for the first compound.

  3. Enter Moles of First Compound:

    In the input field labeled “Moles of First Compound,” enter the number of moles you have of the first compound. Ensure that the value is between 0.000001 and 1,000,000 for an accurate calculation.

  4. Enter Coefficient of First Compound:

    Input the stoichiometric coefficient of the first compound in the reaction equation. This value should range from 1 to 100.

  5. Enter Coefficient of Second Compound:

    Enter the stoichiometric coefficient for the second compound. This field should also be filled with a number between 1 and 100.

Interpreting the Results

  1. Theoretical Moles of Second Compound:

    After inputting the required information, the calculator computes the theoretical moles of the second compound using the formula: (moles1 * coefficientCompound2) / coefficientCompound1. The result is displayed with a precision of six decimal places.

  2. Mole Ratio:

    The calculator also outputs the mole ratio of the first compound to the second compound as coefficientCompound1 : coefficientCompound2. The result is displayed as a whole number with a suffix of ” (Compound 1 : Compound 2)”.

By following these instructions, you can calculate the theoretical moles and mole ratio between two compounds efficiently using the Mole Ratio Calculator.
