The Principle of Atom Conservation (POAC) states that the total number of atoms of reactants must equal the number of atoms of products.
Mass of atoms of element in reactantl
=lmass of atoms of element in product
Number of atoms of element in reactantl
=lnumber of atoms of element in product
Moles of atoms of element in reactantl
=lmoles of atoms of element
Mass of atoms of element in reactantl
=lmass of atoms of element in product
Number of atoms of element in reactantl
=lnumber of atoms of element in product
Moles of atoms of element in reactantl
=lmoles of atoms of element

Actually I'm asking the limitations . Can we apply without any limitations.
In the reactions where more than on reactant is involved, one has to first identify the limiting reactant, i.e., the reactant which is completely consumed. All calculations are to be carried out with the amount of the limiting reactant only.

Answer:
(I'll be considering here that you have idea what this method actually ) ….every method has some pros and cons
Sometime this method will help us to solve problems quickly and easily but also sometime you may fall into trap while using this method.
Basically what we do in it, Is Atomic conservation. And we make them equal and calculate our result but sometime while doing atomic conservation we encounter some unknown entities whose values are not given in problem. In that case you can’t apply this method.
(but again i would not say it is, as a limitation of this method)
Hope you understand it :):
