Circle the best answer, or write your answer on the line.

  1. Respiration: C₆H₁₂O₆ + 6O₂ → 6CO₂ + 6H₂O. Glucose has coefficient 1 and CO₂ 6. How many moles of CO₂ form from 0.5 mol of glucose, Bo?

  2. 2H₂ + O₂ → 2H₂O (an equation only). O₂ has coefficient 1 and H₂O 2. How many moles of water form from 3 mol of O₂, Esme?

  3. Photosynthesis: 6CO₂ + 6H₂O → C₆H₁₂O₆ + 6O₂. CO₂ has coefficient 6 and glucose 1. How many moles of glucose form from 12 mol of CO₂, Jun?

  4. To find mol O₂ from mol H₂ in 2H₂ + O₂ → 2H₂O, which factor do you use, Kira?

    • 1 mol O₂ ÷ 2 mol H₂
    • 2 mol O₂ ÷ 2 mol H₂
    • 2 mol H₂ ÷ 1 mol O₂
  5. To find mol O₂ made from mol CO₂ in 6CO₂ + 6H₂O → C₆H₁₂O₆ + 6O₂, which factor works, Luz?

    • 2 mol O₂ ÷ 1 mol CO₂
    • 1 mol O₂ ÷ 6 mol CO₂
    • 6 mol O₂ ÷ 6 mol CO₂
  6. To find mol glucose used from mol O₂ in C₆H₁₂O₆ + 6O₂ → 6CO₂ + 6H₂O, which factor works, Milo?

    • 1 mol C₆H₁₂O₆ ÷ 1 mol O₂
    • 6 mol O₂ ÷ 1 mol C₆H₁₂O₆
  7. A plant makes 3 mol of O₂ by photosynthesis (6CO₂ + 6H₂O → C₆H₁₂O₆ + 6O₂). How many moles of CO₂ did it use, Noah?

    • 18 mol, from 3 × 6
    • 3 mol, from the 6 : 6 ratio
    • 0.5 mol, from 3 ÷ 6
  8. A runner's cells use 0.1 mol of glucose by respiration (1 glucose : 6 O₂). How many moles of O₂ do they use, Pia?

    • 0.02 mol, from 0.1 ÷ 6
    • 0.1 mol, one O₂ for each glucose
    • 0.6 mol, from 0.1 × 6

About this worksheet

Mole ratios from a balanced equation. Every version has 10 questions, and the answer key prints on the second page.

What your child will learn

  • I can read mole ratios from a balanced equation's coefficients (2H₂ + O₂ → 2H₂O: 2 : 1 : 2).
  • I can find the moles of one substance from the moles of another, with the wanted substance on top of the ratio.
  • I can tell coefficients (moles) from subscripts (atoms in one molecule) and check that an equation is balanced.

Standard: HS-PS1-7

Words to know

coefficient: The number in front of a formula, counting moles or molecules

subscript: The small number after an atom, counting atoms in one molecule

mole ratio: The ratio of moles from an equation's coefficients

balanced: The same count of each atom on both sides

Common mistakes

Your child turned the mole ratio over. Put the substance you want on top: mol O₂ ÷ mol H₂ = 1 ÷ 2.

Your child read a subscript as the mole ratio. The big numbers in front, the coefficients, give the ratio.

Your child treated every substance as 1 to 1. Read the coefficients: respiration uses 6 O₂ for each glucose.

Questions parents ask

What is the most common mistake with mole ratios from a balanced equation?

Your child turned the mole ratio over. Put the substance you want on top: mol O₂ ÷ mol H₂ = 1 ÷ 2.

Are these 10th grade science worksheets free to print?

Yes. All 6 printable versions at each level are free to print, with the answer key, and no account is needed.
