amount of a

compound?Explain with a suitable example. ​

Answer 1

The limiting reagent (or limiting reactant or limiting agent) in a chemical reaction is a reactant that is totally consumed when the chemical reaction is completed. The amount of product formed is limited by this reagent, since the reaction cannot continue without it.

For example, let us consider the reaction of solution and chlorine. 2Na+Cl2→2NaCl.
