In stoichiometry, molar mass is used to

• a. determine the mole ratio.

• b. balance a chemical equation.

• c. convert the amount in moles of one substance to an amount in moles of another substance.

• d. relate the mass of a substance to the amount in moles of that substance.

Molar mass can be used to relate

• a. mass of reactant to moles of reactant.

• b. moles of product to mass of product.

• c. mass of product to moles of product.

• d. All of the above

The number of significant figures in an answer to a stoichiometry problem is determined only by

• a. the number of significant figures in the mole ratio used to solve the problem.

• b. the number of decimal places in the molar masses of substances in the chemical equation.

• c. the number of significant figures of any measured quantities in the problem.

• d. the number of significant figures in the molar masses of substances in the chemical equation.

In the chemical reaction described by the equation

4Fe(s) + 3O2(g) --> 2Fe2O3(s),

the mole ratio of iron(III) oxide to iron is

• 1:1

• 1:2

• 2:3

• 4:1
