Question

A(n) _____________ is a mixture of fuel and oxygen for which the masses of these two components are exactly those needed for complete combustion, with no residue.

Answer 1

A stoichiometric mixture is a mixture of fuel and oxygen for which the masses of these two components are exactly those needed for complete combustion.

A stoichiometric mixture is a balanced mixture of fuel and oxygen.

The fuel and the oxygen react completely without the excesses of either.

The opposite of a stoichiometric mixture is called feeding an excess, when minimum one reactant is an excess amount.

Balanced chemical equation for reaction of combustion one type of a fuel: C₈H₁₈ + 25/2O₂ → 8CO₂ + 9H₂O

Stoichiometric mixture for this example is when fuel (C₈H₁₈) and oxygen(O₂) react in proportion 1 : 12.5.
