  "term": "Stoichiometry",
  "field": "Chemistry",
  "definition": "The quantitative relationship between reactants and products in a chemical reaction, based on the law of conservation of mass. It involves using balanced chemical equations to determine the relative amounts of substances consumed and produced. Calculations in this field often involve moles, mass, and volume relationships.",
