Limiting Reagent: In a chemical reaction limiting reagent is the reactant that is consumed first and prevents any further reaction from occurring. The amount of product formed during the reaction is determined by the limiting reagent. For example, let us consider the reaction of solution and chlorine. 2Na+Cl2→2NaCl.
