Stoichiometry analyzes the amount of reactants and products in a chemical reaction, where these substances are measured through stoichiometric calculations.

We use stoichiometry throughout our day and it starts at breakfast. That coffee that we drink in the morning is delicious not only for the quality, but also for the way it is made. That coffee depends on the amount of powder from that brand of coffee, the type of water, the temperature and, above all, the moment it is filtered and served.

In the laboratory, stoichiometry will determine the amount of each reagent that will be used and also the amount of product produced.
