Introduction The purpose of this lab was to investigate the stoichiometry and find out the mole ratios of simple acid-base reactions experimentally. The reactions studied in this experiment were the following: HCl + NaOH → H2O + HCl H2SO4 + 2NaOH → 2H2O + Na2SO4 H2SO4 + Ba(OH)2 → 2H2O + BaSO4 HCl + Ba(OH)2 → 2H2O + BaCl2 In the chemical reactions, the compounds react in distinct molar proportions or ratios which are constant to the peculiar reaction. The ratios determining the quantities of substances reacting are called stoichiometric coefficients. The reactions between strong acids and bases are relatively simple and non-reversible reactions the “end” of ...
