Answer:

stoichiometric

Step-by-step explanation:

In a combustion process air and fuel is needed. The ratio of air and fuel during a combustion process is called air-fuel ratio. If the ratio of air and fuel is such that the fuel is completely burned it is known as the stoichiometric ratio.

If the ratio is lower than this ratio it is known as a rich mixture and lean mixture vice-versa.
