Solution: In this question, we are given of all the reactants and product, so we need to find the total first through the formula. = -32.89 - (2*0 + 209.2) =-242.1 (Be careful about significant figures).
Depending on the stain technique it can take anywhere from 2 to  24-hours for the stain to dry. For cabinets, you should wait the  entire 24-hours to make sure the stain is â¦not still tacky and to  prevent smudges on the finish.
To achieve a darker stain color, use coarser grit of sandpaper (#150-#180) on the last sanding you do prior to staining. This will help the wood absorb more color. You can also leave the wet stain on the wood for longer before you wipe away the excess - sometimes as long as 15 minutes. This may help you achieve a deeper color. Note: check the label directions for the particular stain you're using to see the maximum time you can wait before wiping off the excess stain.
