    Caffeine has chemical formula as C₈H₁₀N₄O₂. The molecule is made from 4 elements. They are C, H, N and O.

    1 molecule of caffeine has 8 C, 10 H, 4 N and 2 O atoms.

    C₈H₁₀N₄O₂ → 8C + 10H + 4N + 2O

    Stoichiometric ratio 1 : 8 : 10 : 4 : 2

    Hence, 1 mole of C₈H₁₀N₄O₂ has 8 moles of C, 10 moles of H, 4 moles of N and 2 moles of O atoms.
