Common mistakes of stoichiometry pronunciation

  1. Misplacing stress: Many learners incorrectly stress the second syllable, saying "stoichiometry" as /ˌstɔɪˈkɪɒmɪtri/. The correct stress is on the third syllable: /ˌstɔɪkiˈɒmətri/. Tip: Remember to emphasize the "o" in "metry."
  2. Incorrect vowel sounds: Some pronounce the "oi" in "stoichiometry" as /ɔɪ/, leading to confusion. The correct pronunciation is /ˈstɔɪ/, where the "oi" sounds like "oy" in "boy." Tip: Practice saying "boy" to master the sound.
