Question
What do you understand by stoichiometric coefficients in a chemical equation?
✓

Answer

The coefficients of reactants and products involved in a chemical equation represented by the balanced form, are known as stoichiometric coefficients.
e.g. $\mathrm{N}_2(\mathrm{g})+3 \mathrm{H}_2(\mathrm{g}) \rightarrow 2 \mathrm{NH}_3(\mathrm{g})$
The stoichiometric coefficients are 1, 3 and 2 respectively.
