1. Introduction to Stoichiometry
- Stoichiometry deals with the quantitative relationships between reactants and products in a chemical reaction.
- It ensures compliance with the law of conservation of mass.
- Calculations are based on the balanced chemical equation.

1. Introduction to Stoichiometry
- Stoichiometry is the branch of chemistry that deals with the quantitative relationships between reactants and products in a chemical reaction.
- It ensures that the law of conservation of mass is satisfied.
- Helps in determining the amounts of substances involved in a reaction.

1. Law of Multiple Proportions
- Proposed by John Dalton in 1803.
- States that when two elements combine to form more than one compound, the masses of one element that combine with a fixed mass of the other are in the ratio of small whole numbers.
- For example, carbon and oxygen form CO (carbon monoxide) and CO₂ (carbon dioxide).
1. Introduction
- The Laws of Chemical Combination describe the fundamental principles that govern chemical reactions.
- These laws were established based on experimental observations.
- The two primary laws are the Law of Conservation of Mass and the Law of Definite Proportions.

1. Introduction to Matter
- Matter is anything that has mass and occupies space.
- It is composed of atoms, molecules, or ions.
- Matter can be classified based on its composition.
2. Classification of Matter
- Matter is broadly classified into pure substances and mixtures.
- Pure substances are further divided into elements and compounds.
