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.
When you stain something, you wait about 15 minutes for the stain to sink into the wood, then wipe off any excess residue with a shop cloth. This allows the stain to dry in a couple of hours. (I always wait overnight before applying a film finish, however.)
