Abstract
A proposed reaction mechanism in chemical kinetics contains implications for mass-conservation equations (stoichiometry) governing the reacting system. The only information required to determine the number and a particular set of these equations is the stoichiometric matrix of the mechanism, N. The mechanism should first be tested to determine that it is conservative: that it is in accordance with a closed-system assumption. The general criterion is given and a simple version is provided when the formula matrix of the species, A, is also known. For a conservative system, a procedure is given to show how the interactive Java applet JSTOICH can be used to determine the number and a set of mass-conservation equations implied by N (A need not be known). Similarly, if A is known, JSTOICH can be used to determine the number of special stoichiometric restrictions, r. If r = 0, the set of independent element-conservation equations provide the required equations; if r > 0, the set of equations generated by JSTOICH must be used. Examples are given to illustrate the various procedures.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
