Stoichiometry is “quantitative relationship” among the “reactants” and the “products” in a “chemical reaction”.
<u>Explanation</u>:
In stoichiometry “stoicheion” means element and “metron” means measure in Greek. The stoichiometric calculation depends upon “stoichiometric coefficients” in a “chemical equation” which can be explained as the “number of moles” of each substance (reactants or products). Stoichiometric calculation is done as follows:
For example reaction between nitrogen and hydrogen to form ammonia as
Here stoichiometric coefficients show that “one molecule of nitrogen” reacts with “three molecules of hydrogen” to form “two molecules of ammonia”. Multiplying Avogadro number 
to no of molecules in equation:
Taking molar masses into consideration:
Hence balanced equation gives stoichiometric coefficients which gives proportion by moles.

Answer:
electrons
Explanation:
When elements combine to form compounds, chemical bonds form between the atoms. Bonds form when atoms share or exchange electrons in a way that gives each atom a complete outer shell.
For example:
Ionic bond:
It is the bond which is formed by the transfer of electron from one atom to the atom of another element.
For example:
Sodium chloride is ionic compound. The electronegativity of chlorine is 3.16 and for sodium is 0.93. There is large difference is present. That's why electron from sodium is transfer to the chlorine. Sodium becomes positive and chlorine becomes negative ion. Both atoms are bonded together electrostatic attraction occur between anion and cations and have complete octet.
Covalent bond:
It is formed by the sharing of electron pair between bonded atoms.
For example:
In water the electronegativity of oxygen is 3.44 and hydrogen is 2.2. That's why electron pair attracted more towards oxygen, thus oxygen becomes partial negative and hydrogen becomes partial positive. Both have complete octet.
