Question

Limiting Reagent Question?

Answer 1

Find the limiting reagent by looking at the number of moles of each reactant. Determine the balanced chemical equation for the chemical reaction. Convert all given information into moles (most likely, through the use of molar mass as a conversion factor). Calculate the mole ratio from the given information.

Answer 2

Explanation:

For a chemical reaction to proceed to completion , the reactants need to be in amounce as required by a balanced chemical equation. When it is not so one reactant is in access over the other.

The amount of the product formed then it depends upon the reactant which gets consumed.

This reactant which gets consumed , limits the amount of the product formed and is called the limiting reagent.
