from the equation 2x +3y = 4l +m

2 moles of x react with 3 moles of y

8 miles of x is supposed to react with 3/2 x 8 moles of y =12 moles

since we have 15 moles of y it means y is in excess

i) the limiting reagent is x

2 moles of x produce 4 moles of l and 1 mole of m

ii) 8 moles of x Will produce 2x8 =16 moles of l

8 moles of x will produce 1/2 x 8 moles of l =4 moles

iii) Excess reactant is y

Excess y = 15 moles -12 moles = 3 moles
