Direct linkCroteau, Joshua; Fox, William P.; Varazo, Kristofoland – PRIMUS, 2007
In beginning chemistry classes, students are taught a variety of techniques for balancing chemical equations. The most common method is inspection. This paper addresses using a system of linear mathematical equations to solve for the stoichiometric coefficients. Many linear algebra books carry the standard balancing of chemical equations as an…

Peer reviewedAlick, Bonita; Atwater, Mary M. – School Science and Mathematics, 1988
Discusses problem-solving strategies and the successful strategy used to solve stoichiometric problems in general college chemistry courses. Reports that rereading problems, recalling a related concept, and reasoning deductively/inductively are the most heavily used strategies among 13 categories. (YP)
