Question

if 6gm of carbon and 8gm of oxygen are taken in a reaction then identify the limiting reagent in their reaction and also calculate the amount of co2 formed
plz answer correctly....​

Answer 1

Answer:

Hence, the answer is 11g

Explanation:

This is governed by the law of definite proportion. Carbon and oxygen combine in 3:8 ratio. So 11 g of carbon dioxide is formed.

Hence, in the latter case too, only 8 g of O

2

will be reacted with 3g of carbon (because carbon is the limiting reagent here ) to form 11g of C02 and 42 g of oxygen will remain unreacted.
