Stoichiometry is the area of chemistry focused on the quantitative relationships between reactants and products in chemical reactions. It provides a framework for calculating the amounts of substances consumed or produced during these transformations. The term "stoichiometry" itself is derived from the Greek words "stoicheion," meaning element, and "metron," meaning measure, highlighting its core function. Essentially, it's the science of measuring chemical elements and their interactions.
