Tip for handling stoichiometry problems involving gases: Use the ideal gas law (PV = nRT) to solve for the number of moles (n) of gas involved. Once you have a value of moles, you can then use mole ratios and mole conversion calculations, just as you would with any other stoichiometry problem! This also works the other way around; with a number of moles of gas, you can solve for the gas pressure (P), volume (V), or temperature in Kelvin (T) with the ideal gas law, as specified by the problem.
