Question

short notes on limiting reagent​

Answer 1

Hey mate: Here is your answer:

The limiting reagent (or limiting reactant or limiting agent) in a chemical reaction is a reactant that is totally consumed when the chemical reaction is completed. The amount of product formed is limited by this reagent, since the reaction cannot continue without it.

Answer 2

Answer:

$\bold\pink{★Limiting\:Reagent ★:-}$

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+Cl 2 →2NaCl

2Na atoms react with 1 Cl2 molecule. So, if we have 6Na moles, 3Cl2 molecule will be required, if there are more than 3 moles of Cl2 gas, sodium(Na) will act as a limiting reagent and some Cl2 molecule will remain as an excess reagent.

Hope it helps you ✨...
