Let us Take An Example:

★The limiting reagent in a reaction is the first to be completely used up and prevents any further reaction from occurring.

★ In this reaction, reactant B is the limiting reagent because there is still some left over A in the products.

★Therefore, A was in excess when B was all used up.

Answer 2

Answer:

The limiting reagent (or limiting reactant or limiting agent) in a chemical reaction is the substance that is totally consumed when the chemical reaction is complete. The amount of product formed is limited by this reagent, since the reaction cannot continue without it. If one or more other reagents are present in excess of the quantities required to react with the limiting reagent, they are described as excess reagents or excess reactants (xs).
